I tried to install x-window-system-core to use use xorg.
After the debconf setup, i get this error:

set. Aborting. Reconfigure the X server with "dpkg-reconfigure" to correct
this problem.

Changes:

.
[ David Nusinow ]
* dexconf: Don't write the server layout. The server no longer requires one
by default as of 1.4.
* Don't ask or write about video ram. This is a useless "feature"
* dexconf: Set SERVER to xorg
* Don't ask for the monitor identifier, just use a generic name
* Delete the obsolete template question for autodetect mouse
* Don't ask for the mouse port or protocol any more
+ Will be set to /dev/input/mice by default.
+ Add udev to xserver-xorg recommends to make sure this device file is
present on normal systems
+ Will be set to "auto" protocol by default. This will let the driver
choose the correct protocol automatically. The kernel driver multiplexes
different protocols through the same /dev/input/mice device file,
allowing this. Only in pathological cases will you need to work around
it.
* Don't specify the device section to use in the screen section
+ xserver-xorg-core 2:1.4-3 and above will use the first device section
listed when none is specified. We only write one device with this script
anyway.
+ Have xserver-xorg depend on -core >= 2:1.4-3
* Delete unused templates for no_known_ and multible_possible_ x-servers
* Delete hidden fontserver template and dexconf ability to use it
+ This wasn't configurable and most people should be fine without listing
a font server in xorg.conf
* Don't ask about writing the files section any more. Delete the question
.
[ Christian Perrier ]
* Hebrew. Closes: #447308
.
[ Timo Aaltonen ]
* xserver-xorg.postinst.in:
- Add lt to the list of non-Latin keymaps.
- Clean up duplicate keymaps in xserver-xorg.config.in and make sure
they're all neatly alphabetised.
- Map cf console keymap to ca(fr)
- Map croat console keymap to hr.
- Map et console keymap to ee.
- Set default keyboard variant for French to oss.
- Map mk console keymap to mk.
- Map nl console keymap to nl.
- Map ru console keymap to ru.
- Map slovene console keymap to si.
- Map sr-cy console keymap to map to cs, not sr, following xkeyboard-config
changes.
- Handle trfu/trqu console keymaps the same way as trf/trq.
- Map uk console keymap to gb, not gb(intl).
- Fix sanity-checking logic for French Canadian vs. US-layout keyboards.
- Try autodetecting South Korean keyboards. They have to be detected
from LANG since they use US keymaps on the console.
- Sparc doesn't need sun types keyboard since 2.6 kernel come to play
in the game. Make it use pc105 instead with xorg rules.
- Use fbset for HPPA.
- Detect keyboard layout configuration using /etc/default/console-setup
if available.
* dexconf: Fix problem preventing touchpad scrolling from being able to be
enabled by switching HorizEdgeDelta for HorizEdgeScroll.
.
[ Julien Cristau ]
* dexconf: don't use the shared/default-x-server template (closes: #443004).
* debian/control: xserver-xorg depends on x11-common >= 1:7.3+3 for the
above change.
* debian/xserver-xorg.templates: drop the default-x-server question.
* dexconf: don't generate two mouse sections. Touchpads will be handled
through input-hotplug.
