Joe, do you have that file? I would expect yes, since downgrading to 1.7 makes X work again.

Ok, thanks, merging this bug report with #406061.
So, you didn't have any /etc/X11/Xwrapper.config file? Or you had one
without 'allowed_users=console'?
Actually, I had /etc/X11/Xwrapper.config _with_ 'allowed_users=console'.
Running dpkg-reconfigure did not change a thing in the file! All, I
know is that right afterwards it worked...
Could you tell us what/how you upgraded recently? Did you have a plain
Etch system before? and you switch the whole X to unstable when the
problem occured? /var/log/dpkg.log might help you, look for x11-common
and xorg related lines.
I ran a dist-upgrade on May 2nd/3rd that seems to have resulted in the
breakage. I think I was running unstable before that, just hadn't
upgraded for a couple of weeks.
Here are the relevant lines from /var/log/dpkg.log{,.1}:
2007-04-01 02:12:18 upgrade x11-common 1:7.1.0-12 1:7.1.0-15
2007-04-01 02:12:22 upgrade xserver-xorg-core 2:1.1.1-18 2:1.1.1-20
2007-04-01 02:12:31 upgrade xserver-xorg 1:7.1.0-12 1:7.1.0-15
2007-04-14 23:34:41 upgrade x11-common 1:7.1.0-15 1:7.1.0-18
2007-04-14 23:35:10 upgrade xserver-xorg-core 2:1.1.1-20 2:1.1.1-21
2007-04-14 23:35:14 upgrade xserver-xorg 1:7.1.0-15 1:7.1.0-18
2007-05-02 23:53:43 upgrade x11-common 1:7.1.0-18 1:7.2-3
2007-05-03 00:05:50 upgrade xserver-xorg-core 2:1.1.1-21 2:1.3.0.0.dfsg-3
2007-05-03 00:05:55 upgrade xserver-xorg 1:7.1.0-18 1:7.2-3
2007-05-14 22:38:50 upgrade xserver-xorg-core 2:1.3.0.0.dfsg-3 2:1.3.0.0.dfsg-4
Few things have changed regarding the packaging of X between Etch and
Xorg 7.2, so it would be strange that Xwrapper.config disappeared. In
bug #406061, the problem occurred after an upgrade from Sarge, there are
much more packaging changes there.
Well, I most definitely was running at least etch before the upgrade.
Of course, at that point there probably wasn't much different between
the two...
Let me know if there's anything else I can do.
