Bug Description
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg
An update security recommands me to update the meta "xserver-xorg". I approve and launch the update (65 packages with xserver-xorg-xxx).
After a reboot, xserver crash and I have:
"Required Symbol MGA...
Fatal server error:
Some required symbols were unresolved"
With a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, the problem persists.
I have a Matrox graphic card G200.
I use "vesa" in device of xorg.conf but i can't use 1280*1024 résolution.

To post a comment you must log in.
The recent breezy security update didn't really change much, I doubt that the patch caused the crash. Does it help if you downgrade to the previous version?
sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg/breezy xserver- xorg-core/ breezy
Or, the other way round, did you do a full apt-get dist-upgrade, or did you just update xserver-xorg? If the latter, can you please try a full dist-upgrade (which will update the various drivers as well) and check again?
Thanks!
