The bug is:
If somebody installs Xubuntu 8.10 at ALIX.1D board (www.pcengines.ch) which has 
an AMD LX800 CPU then Xubuntu will crash at boot becouse of a problem with 
/etc/X11/xorg.conf   . 

After many hours I found the solution to this problem:
the Driver of Section Device at /etc/X11/xorg.conf has to be changed to "vesa" 
instead of "amd" or "geode".
Then the new section "Device" at xorg.conf will be:

Section "Device"
 Identifier "Card0"
 Driver "vesa"       #<----  I changed it, it was "geode"
 VendorName "Advanced Micro Devices [AMD]"
 BoardName "Geode LX Video"
 BusID "PCI:0:1:1"
EndSection

In addition, in order to change the resolution I changed the Section "Screen"
Section "Screen"
 Identifier "Screen0"
 Device "Card0"
 Monitor "Monitor0"
        DefaultDepth 24
 SubSection "Display"
      Modes "1024x768" "800x600" #<---- put here the resolution that you want
 EndSubSection
EndSection


So, I reported a bug and simultaneously I gave a solution to it.
