Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 1:7.3+18
Installed a fresh copy of Debian Lenny on a VIA C3 powered laptop with
a CLE266 graphics chip. X.org failed to start. A description of the
problem can be found in this post of another person with the identical
problem: http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?p=182006&sid=3a4ceaee52c267725c8df56fcb292f83
It looketh like some special detection will be needed for VIA graphics
chips in order to create an xorg.conf file for them. As a note, Debian
Etch worked fine on this laptop using the VIA driver
xserver-xorg-video-via.
The driver used in Lenny is xserver-xorg-video-via (1:0.2.2-6).
Thanks,
Aaron Johnson

Thanks for the reply. There's nothing wrong in the xorg.conf, it looks
like the VIA chipset was correctly detected. So I guess something wrong
happened during X startup after the installation, probably a wrong mode
was chosen.
We can't do anything without the log unfortunately. So since your laptop
has been stolen, we won't be able to debug, so I am closing this bug. If
anybody ever reproduces, please reopen and send your config and log.
