I had xserver-xgl installed for some reason, maybe I tried it during
edgy... Anyway the package has been installed since then and hasn't
caused problems until this upgrade. I guess that's my own fault, but it
sure took some time debugging why X got totally borked (running like
without acceleration, wrong keyboard settings, any gl app crashing whole
X, etc)... This using i810 and intel drivers with 915GM.

Anyway, I doubt I am alone having "stale" xserver-xorg package
installed, popcon.ubuntu.com says installed 14317 and vote 2390, meaning
that vast majority of xserver-xorg installations are unused and will
only serve to break X for the user. At least some warning would help
people fix their x-servers.
