Hi Giorgos;

Thanks for your reply. I'm curious about what changed that now causes
this error to occur.  I'm not aware of making any changes myself. I'd
also like to make a bug report if I can figure out what happened,
assuming it is a bug and not something I did.

I see references in bugzilla to the same error message, but it appears
that these problems originated from a Ubuntu version upgrade. My
install is a roughly four month old breezy RC updated to current.

So, I need to compare /etc/X11/xorg.conf and what other file?

-P
