RE: X in Woody - what gives

tried this and got the same results.  The XF86Config-4 was created but
startx bails with the messages (summarized paraphrased)

(EE) MGA: Failed to load module 'mga_hal' (module does not exist, 0)
     blah blah
     using builtin mode inst
(EE) Screens found, but none have a usable config.

Fatal server error: no screens found

Again, I renamed the config file and startx seemed to work.  A head
scratcher.  Might just try booting into Gentoo and then looking at the
XFConfig-4 file there.  Can't read it from woody with 2.2.20 since my Gentoo
partition is XFS.

Thanks for the help
