The amount of packages is not that small, just the number of packages I got from main (most of the packages are from Universe). Anyway, I upgraded just the X server and ATI
driver from Dapper and now X server doesn't anymore
segfault with with the ATI driver. It works otherwise nicely
now too.
I.e. this bug is Breezy specific.

Thanks! I didn't especially cherish the thought of building
X server, I did enough of that for kdrive a few years ago...
