Can't start X after upgrade to Lenny

[Marc Shapiro <mshapiro_42@yahoo.com>]

I decided that it was time to upgrade to Lenny so that I could use Firefox 3 since I have heard that might eliminate some of the lockups that I have been having.

My box has a PC Chips K8 motherboard with SiS 760GX/964 Chipset and an Athlon XP 800+ CPU.

This is what I have done:
changed my etc/apt/sources.list to point to Lenny
ran aptitude update
ran aptitude install dpkg apt aptitude
ran aptitude safe-upgrade
   I had to run this several times before it completed without
   errors and showed no packages still to be upgraded
ran aptitude full-upgrade
   had to uninstall wine and sane to get this to run without errors

ran startx
   got the following errors:

(II) Module "ddc" already built-in
(EE) Failed to load module "type1" (module does not exist, 0)
(II) Module "ddc" already built-in
Emulator asked to make a suspect byte access to port 4 (0x0004); terminating.

Any help in getting X to run will be greatly appreciated.  I am hoping that this is just a question of a manual config change, but I don't know enough about X configs to know where to start.

Is there a known current problem with wine and sane?  Wine is probably not much of an issue, but without sane my scanner is not going to function.

Thanks for any help.
