Hi Bernd,
first, you did not say HOW you cloned the system. But it would seem that
you did not setup the target system with the correct video setting.
the source server has a ati radeon 7000/ve and 
the target server has a S3 Unicrome Pro
If you ran 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg', you would try to find a
diffrent setting. i'm not sure what the best setting is, but you can
always start with the basic 'vesa' driver. Google for a more featurefull
driver. The source card can use: vesa,ati or radeon. The message seems
to say that you setup the target with one of these settings. Also,
sometimes you may need a 'lower level' reconfigure, this is done with
'dpkg-reconfigure -plow xserver-xorg'.
Cheer,
Kev
