F12 failures

[Paolo Galtieri]

I finally managed to update my laptop using preupgrade.  When it booted up I
did not get a GUI.  Here is a partial output of the messages file:

I have attached the  Xorg log file.

Here is the lspci output

After my experience getting this working I'm not too thrilled with F12.
This configuration worked fine under F11.
