xserver can't find device specified for screen.

[Jeff Chua]

I've having trouble starting X with the recent git's xserver. It seems
to be caused by the commit below ... or is there a new option that
needed for the new xserver?

Thanks,
Jeff.

    Don't require that the screen explicitly attach the device section

    This will allow the screen to not explicitly have a device section. If
    this is the case and there is a device section in the xorg.conf, the first
    one will be used. If there is no device section at all, a default one will
    be created that loads the automatically determined module.


Here's the output of /usr/adm/Xorg.0.log ...

(==) ServerLayout "Simple Layout"
(**) |-->Screen "Screen X60" (0)
(**) |   |-->Monitor "<default monitor>"
(==) No device specified for screen "Screen X60".
        Using the first device section listed.
(**) |   |-->Device "Device X60"


I've only one section for "Screen" and one for "Device", but it looks
it's skipping even the known one.

Part of my xorg.conf ...
