Amd64. An ATI xpress 200 integrated display adapter. Worked fine in the 
past. Not using beryl or compiz or any other composite driver.

Updated to yesterday's and then today's rawhide.

startx just goes to black.

Xorg.log shows no problem. syslog shows no problem.

I don't know where the xpress200 warning came from. It's not from Xorg.log.

I've tried switchdesk kde and xfce. No luck.

I've not a clue what's going on, much less where to file a bug.

Any suggestions??
