no eye candy after woody



hello all,

i have searched and searched on the archived lists and i am sure
that the answer is there but i haven't found it. i am sorry if
people feel as if they are repeating themselves.

i finally upgraded to woody and now i have the expected X problem.
i can't figure it out though at all.

how do i configure XFree4 for woody?

i think it has to do with drivers,
the final error message being:

********************************************
(II) VGA: Generic VGA driver (version 4.0) for chipsets: generic 
(EE) No devices detected

Fatal server error:
no screens found
******************************************

i can send what is in the logs but my keyboard got destroyed so i
am now using a really old keyboard and i can't use gpm or scroll
back or...
let me know if you need more info.

i have a powerpc 7300/200
below is my old config file

grts,
sisi
