No - this X server is mostly identical to the old one - it'll work with
the old kernels.  If you want to run it at 1280x1024, try:

        fbset -a 1280x1024-60

And that should sort you out.

Is ppp.o in the current directory?  If it's not, then this is expected.
If you want insmod to pull it out of /lib/modules, then you should use
insmod ppp

Also, you can get the path which should exist for the modules by:

        echo /lib/modules/`uname -r`

Check that /lib/modules/`uname -r`/misc/ppp.o exists.  For msdos, check
in /lib/modules/`uname -r`/fs for:
        fat.o
        msdos.o

Also, have you run depmod -a ?
