Hello Brice,

Good news, 

I did what you proposed and I got X back in the testing installation, 
thanks for this workaround.

KDE starts as well, 
two minor differences I see at the moment:

1. the asteriskes to hide the password in kdm are replaced by big black filled 
circles.

2. the bouncing icons during startup of an application have a weird flickering 
background.

I'm willing to spend more time for further testing to trace down this bug in 
the testing xserver-xorg-core. Under guidance of an X-guru, as debugging 
X-software is not my field.

Thanks again for the workaround.

Bert
