I just installed Debian on my PowerBook G4 12", but my X server refuses to
start.  I've appended my Xorg.log and xorg.conf.

This is with a Debian testing system with the following (relevant) packages:

   # dpkg -l '*nouveau' 'drm*' 'xserver-xorg'

X.Org X server -- Nouveau display driver (experimental)

Reading this list it appears that the `nouveau' driver should work on my
machine (tho I'm not quite sure yet whether I'll be able to use the
composite-video output to my TV set).  So I guess I'm doing something
stupid, but I can't seem to figure out what.  I tried with and without the
UseFBDev option, but it makes no difference.  Any idea what I might
be missing?

You need to update the DDX, the version you used contained something that broke
on powerbooks, it is fixed again in a later release.
