Hi...

Small debconf script bug, I think.

I just did a
dpkg-reconfigure xserver-common
and changed the nice value of the xserver from -10 to 0 using debconf.

However, Xwrapper.config looked like this after doing so:
### BEGIN DEBCONF SECTION
# Do not edit within this region if you want your changes
# debconf.  Instead, make changes after the "### END DEBCO
allowed_users=console
nice_value=-10
### END DEBCONF SECTION

Running dpkg-reconfigure xserver-common confirmed that no change had in fact 
been made.

Repeated attempts to use dpkg-reconfigure had the same result (ie. nothing).
In the end I changed it manually to 0, which worked.

=)

problem, feel free to reopen.
