Tim, going on Branden's suggestion of the Modules section, here is my
Modules section. I am using Branden's phase 1 .debs (and matrox's
driver) on my dual-head g400max without any problems (running sawfish)
(well, I had to drop down to 16bit from 24 bit because the primary
display showed vertical lines, but that is hardly branden's fault :) and
these modules seem to work well enough. I don't claim any special
knowledge, except this is what the xf86cfg program put into the Modules
Section. :)
Section "Module"
Load "GLcore"
Load "dbe"
Load "dri"
Load "extmod"
Load "glx"
Load "pex5"
Load "record"
Load "xie"
EndSection
So, if you try these one at a time, or paste them all in (if you are as
sloppy as me), I think things will work for you. :)

Can someone help him out? It's the Modules section again.

[followups to debian-x, please]
[7 September] Phase 2 .debs of XFree86 4.0 are now available. These
are retrievable with apt, and should upgrade smoothly from version
3.3.6 of XFree86, but please note that they are for testing, not
general-purpose use, and the library packages should definitely should
not be used to compile packages for upload to Debian..
hi branden,
i'm currently running your xfree packages (due to the
ATI Rage Mobility 128 not being supported by versions
prior to 4.0.1) and the one problem i'm encountering
is that the server does not deal with shapes.
as i have only run 4.0.1 from your packages, i'm not
sure whether that's actually a .deb problem or if there's
really no support for shapes in the server (yet).
(FYI, serveral apps use shapes, e.g. sawfish doesn't
work at all currently, as it defines shapes for all
of its frame windows).
is there maybe an extra package with server modules
that i could be missing?
