It would be good to know which exact upgrade of a Xorg packages between
these 2 dates causes your problem. For instance, if you just upgrade
xserver-xorg-core and/or your video driver, does the problem appear as
if you upgrade all packages in 2006/09/21?

Also, is there a chance you try a current Debian testing system? All
these Xorg packages are outdated nowadays. The problem might be
completely gone these days.

Please send the whole output of
    /usr/share/bug/xserver-xorg/script 3>&1
so that we see your whole hardware and software config.
