Bug#284337: xdebconfigurator: Fails with ATI 9600XT

[Free Ekanayaka <free@agnula.org>]

Package: xdebconfigurator
Version: 1.12
Severity: normal

Hi,

I'm using xdebconfigurator 1.12 in the beta version of A/DeMuDi 1.2.1.

One of the user reported this fail:

Free,
I got my XServer working after a bit of editing, although once the screen
returned no errors I had to configure the mouse, so I would say that XFree86
configuration program is not very well at all.

Here is the original output of the xdeb.log:
