/etc/X11/xorg.conf indicate only generic devices are employed for
keyboard, mouse, video and monitor.  The install should have detected my
Nvidia GeForce 2 MX card and allowed me to edit the item that was
problematic under Etch.

Lenny's Xserver is supposed to autodetect devices at runtime which
means that there is no need to define them in xorg.conf as long as
autodetection does it job well. You may modify xorg.cong if you wish
to override autodetection results.
