Help me please!

I have mistakenly trusted the Debian community and upgraded to Sarge
and it is a DISASTER.

HOW COULD YOU HAVE DONE THIS TO US ! ! !

(Reading database ... 70119 files and directories currently installed.)
Removing xserver-rage128 ...
sed: can't read /etc/X11/Xserver: No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing xserver-rage128 (--remove):
subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
xserver-rage128
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
Some errors occurred while unpacking. I'm going to configure the
packages that were installed. This may result in duplicate errors
or errors caused by missing dependencies. This is OK, only the errors
above this message are important. Please fix them and run [I]nstall again
Press enter to continue.
installation script returned error exit status 100.
Press <enter> to continue.

I have ties "-", "_", "=" in dselect to no avial.

How can I fix this?

Slashdot has written how 30% of Sarge upgrades are failing.

THIS IS INEXCUSABLE ! ! !

Thanks,

Brian
