X stopped working with 5.14 on iBook

[Riccardo Mottola <riccardo.mottola@libero.it>]

Hi,

I carefully upgraded kernel and other selected packages on my trusty 
iBook and see how it goes. The iMac G5 runs smooth (except for libffi 
issues) with current kernel and Debian the PowerBook adds to this latest 
kernel issues, but for the rest it has "only" the libffi issue.

How would the iBook do? I didn't upgrade it in months. I carefully 
upgraded things not to ever pull in libffi.

If I startx I get a black screen, no cursor, no nothing. The iBook is 
not locked up- I can log into in through ssh. I can kill Xorg and get 
back to a "mangled" console where I can blindly type, but see nothing.

There are no errors in Xorg.log


I fear it has something to do with the 5.14 series kernel, since booting 
the old 5.10 gives me a perfectly working X! Ideas ?
