Did any earlier xserver-xorg-core work? Which ones?
You can use http://snapshot.debian.net/ to downgrade to 2:1.4-3 or 2:1.3.0

We need the config and log of this sony box, or we won't be able to do
anything
with this bug report. Can you log through ssh? If so, please send the
output of
    /usr/share/bug/xserver-xorg/script 3>&1
