Binary package hint: xorg

Gents,

I'm having major problems with xorg (1:7.4~5ubuntu3) in Ubuntu 8.10. Installed are two Number Nine Revolution IV LVD cards (plus 2 SGI 1600SW monitors), and with an adjusted xorg.conf this worked perfectly up to 8.04 (although both video cards and screens were not properly detected).
8.10 gives me neither a desktop nor a login prompt, and after fiddling around for some time I discovered that there seems to be a library problem:

I'm not expert in this, for me it looks like a compilation problem. The log file does not show problems (see attachment).

Seems I have to go back to 8.04...

Thanks!
