I tried to install xserver-xorg 7.3 from unstable and it broke X. First the error was that
it couldn't find module type1. I commented out load "type1" in xorg.conf. Then it told me
it couldn't find module v4l. I commented out load "v4l" in xorg.conf. Then it told me it
couldn't find mga. I have a matrox card and need mga so I gave up and reverted to xserver-xorg 7.2.

These are just warnings, nothing bad.

You need to install xserver-xorg-video-mga.
If it doesn't work, please send the whole output of
/usr/share/bug/xserver-xorg/script 3>&1
after having reinstall xorg from unstable.
