	Hello, Reinhard. Could you please replace /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/libvgahw.a 
with the one available in http://people.debian.org/~ender/ and restart X? You 
may need to restart the whole system to achieve full recovery.

	Please send to the bug address the result of this test.

	Best regards,


		Ender.

I was having the same problem (actually 2 problems- after upgrade to X.org -- 
after running startx the VT fonts were borked and VT screens were surrounded 
by a blue border and typed text would not display, and also the X display was 
distorted by fine vertical lines and distorted colors (until using ctrl-alt-+ 
to change to different screen resolution and cycling around).  Replacing the 
file you suggested fixed BOTH of these problems, as best as I can discern.
... now if I can get my browsers to use mailto: correctly...
