The original debs built against the server which is now in testing are available
at
http://www.wooyd.org/debian/xorg/
or from snapshot.debian.net. You only need to install them (manually), if you run
testing, and after recent upgrade (see above), the X server does not start
anymore. I plan to upload the new version of the drivers with the correct
dependency version tomorrow, then we can just wait for the new server to propagate
to testing.
