x.org xserver endemic issue on hardware change



Hi daniel and debian-x,
i want to talk to you about a problem in x.org/xserver.
When a newbie user change the video card or some other sensible
component - like monitor - caused by a component crash or simply by an
hardware upgrade Xfree and X.org in debian an ubuntu will not start
again on the first boot with the new hardware (specially if the user
change the videocard with another one that need a different driver).
For an expert user is simple to solve, but for a newbie:
1st he had a crashed system
2nd The rescue process isn't good for a newbie:
login to the console, sudo with  dpkg-reconfigure --priority=high
xserver-xfree86

IMHO isn't a good solution.
How we can approach to solve this problem?

Cheers,
Blue.
