The same here; but in my case an update pretty much killed my
working so far X server. I have Radeon 9500 Pro card. Before
this update it worked with "radeon" driver in 24-bit depth.
Tring radeon driver now ends up with
Fatal server error:
Caught signal 11. Server aborting
I can only use 'vesa' in 16-bits as with 24-bits and that driver
a display is thorougly garbled.
There are also complaints "Couldn't open RGB_DB '/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb'".
Indeed, /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb.txt is gone. And I am also getting
alerts about "Error activating XKB configuration". I still have
look at fonts. Pretty messy.
So far I did not even try to see what gdm will do. After an update
and before a reboot the whole display, X or no X, promptly crashed
taking a keyboard with it. Luckily I could get in from a remote
machine.
