Hello together,

i did not install the backup and found the problem now.
The ATI driver from March 2014 did not fit together with the updated X-Server 
package.

I downloaded and installed the newest Catalyst driver from here and X is 
running now again:
http://support.amd.com/de-de/download/desktop?os=Linux+x86
Version Omega (14.12) from 09.12.2014.

So this bug can be closed now.

But you should think about an solution for the problem, because after the upgrade you did not have the chance to see anything, because the graphic card was dead. When you have not another PC, network and a running SSH-Server on the system, you can't do anything to get it working again. This is really fatal!

From my experience in the last year it is getting more and more difficult to get an working desktop system with running X and sound with Debian.
There are problems with ATI and NVidia, such as 
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=767678

Is there really no chance to get this problems covered?
A failsafe system that has the possibilty to have X with a standard VGA 
resolution would be a milestone for Debian.

I wish you a happy new year!
Karsten
