I am running woody on a laptop since one year. After the last upgrade (i.e. last night) the xserver does not work. It complains that none of the configured devices can be detected. I tried to reconfigure using XF86Setup, and found that my card (NeoMagic NM256 et cetera) is not in the list any more. Probably there are many things in my XF86Config which could be better, but anyway it worked for several months. And I find quite strange that the card list is changed. I attach the errors given by startx and my XF86Config file. Many thanks Regards Alessandro

If the server is older than 6-12 months, or if your card is newer
than the above date, look for a newer version before reporting
problems. (see http://www.XFree86.Org/FAQ)
