This sounds quite similar to the xdebconfigurator package from the debian-edu project: http://packages.debian.org/testing/x11/xdebconfigurator Description: A script used with debconf to autoconfigure xserver-xfree86 A script-package used in conjunction with debconf to autoconfigure xserver-xfree86. This script is supposed to help setup X correctly even with DEBIAN_FRONTEND set to noninteractive. Did anybody ever had a look whether it might make sense to throw that one in for the desktop task in order to configure X? Seems to work quite fine for Skolelinux, but I did not have a thourough look.
