           Summary: xorg drivers fail after xorg-server update (e.g. 1.4.2 -
                    > 1.5.2)
           Product: Codex
           Version: test grimoire
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P2
         Component: x11

xorg-server is updated. I reboot, X fails to load. The logs say they couldn't
find the driver. In my case, I recast xf86-video-ati (was previously not cast
after the update) and my X now works.

At least xf86-video-* need a TRIGGER to be recast (`cleanse --fix
xf86-video-ati` found no issue) when xorg-server is compiled, though a refined
trigger solely for a version change would be better.

Other drivers (e.g. xf86-input-*) do not seem to need a trigger (keyboard and
mouse worked fine after update and no need to recast
xf86-input-{keyboard,mouse,synaptics}).
