how to get a clean xserver-xorg installation?



Hi,

I'm having trouble getting my xserver to run on an unstable machine which I
just upgraded.  kdm runs, pauses on login and returns without entering any
desktop (KDE or otherwise).  I am getting an error:

 error opening security policy file
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xserver/SecurityPolicy

which after some Googeling seems not to be the problem (or is it?).

I've used dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to try to get it running to no
avial, and I suspect there is some config file mixup. How can I get a really
clean xorg setup?  apt-get remove --purge xserver-xorg doesn't seem to do
the trick, I still get old config file warnings etc.

It worked before the dist-upgrade, has a (lspci) Radeon 9200 PRO, dpkg
showed a drm error ("without lock") until I turned off dri in
dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg.

Any suggestions?

Thaks,

Chris
