X don't start after 'apt-get dist-upgrade' (remastered Knoppix 4.0.2 CD)

[<tapani.raikkonen@surfeu.fi>]

Hi all!

I have remastered new Knoppix 4.0.2 successfully and could even update
every package by 'apt-get upgrade'. I'm quite a satisfied with this but I
would like to do a full upgrading from KDE 3.4.1 to 3.4.2 and all other
packages by 'apt-get dist-upgrade'.

Now booting from CD gives a message: "No suitable X-Server found for your
card." Same in tree different machines with totally different cards.

What might be causing this? Is some packages broken so badly (from
experimental?) that X don't even start? Here's my listing of files what
dist-upgrade removed, updated and installed. Is there some critical
package?  I installed every new configuration files except
/etc/X11/Xsession and Xsession.options:

I'm wondering this very much because I have previosly upgraded
successfully to KDE 3.4.2 from Knoppix 3.8.1. The reason for new
remastering is many goodies included in new Knoppix 4.0.2 :)

KK:
Finnish language section in /etc/init.d/knoppix-autoconfig is not right.
It should be as following:

fi)
# Finnish version, though we may not have the kde-i18n files
COUNTRY="fi"
LANG="fi_FI@euro"
KEYTABLE="fi-latin1"
XKEYBOARD="fi"
KDEKEYBOARD="fi"
CHARSET="iso8859-15"
# Additional KDE Keyboards
KDEKEYBOARDS="se,us"
TZ="Europe/Helsinki"
;;

The difference is in KEYTABLE. If it is "fi", scandinavian characters (ä,
ö, å) don't work in virtual terminals. I hope I would get euro sign also
to work, but don't know how.
