X Server Error Messages After Updates (2007.0 -> 2007.1)
I got these messages after running updates which changed my Mandriva from 2007.0 to 2007.1. (I've also updated XFree86/Xorg.) I used both free & non-free repositories. I've even gone so far as to use the original KDE Mandriva One (2007.0) live CD to copy the xorg.conf file over to my HD.

You can also just run the command XFdrake from within a GUI or the CLI if you want to reconfigure your X settings.
