1. did you choose different driver in she xserver-xfree86 configuration
dialog?

2. did you manually modify /etc/X11/FF86Config-4 before?

if the 2. is true, try what's mentioned in it:

#   cp /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 /etc/X11/XF86Config-4.custom
#   md5sum /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 >/var/lib/xfree86/XF86Config-4.md5sum
#   dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86
