	Branden has pointed out, on -devel, that the following
 packages may help in setting up X: discover, mdetect, read-edid

	I have not personally tried them yet, but they bear
 investigation, and may help.  My understanding is that auto-detection
 and configuration based on these and other tools may not make it into
 woody (so we have another couple of years as a geeky distribution),
 but there would be a serious effort post woody.
