Yes, I go ahead and upgrade the linux-image to 2.6.18 and reload udev.
Now it seems the mouse problem is gone but I still not be able to
startx. Because the system tells me:

$-----------------------snap begin------------------------------------$

xkb_geometry { include "pc(pc104)" };

You probably need to change the font paths in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf;
see here:

http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2006/05/msg02096.html

If you cannot figure out what to do then you can post the output of

awk '/Section "Files"/,/EndSection/' /etc/X11/xorg.conf

so that we can have a look at the relevant part of your configuration
file.

Hey,

This is the output of the command

$-------------------code begin----------------------------$
LIJIANG:~# awk '/Section "Files"/,/EndSection/' /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Section "Files"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi/:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi/:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi"
# path to defoma fonts
FontPath "/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/
TrueType"
EndSection
$---------------------code end ------------------------------$

But I still get the below error
$----------------error begin-----------------------------$
(EE) AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI capable
error opening security policy file /etc/X11/xserver/SecurityPolicy
xkb_keycodes { include "xfree86+aliases(qwerty)" };
xkb_types { include "complete" };
xkb_compatibility { include "complete" };
xkb_symbols { include "pc(pc105)+us" };
xkb_geometry { include "pc(pc104)" };

Fatal server error:
could not open default font 'fixed'
XIO: fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X server ":0.0"
after 0 requests (0 known processed) with 0 events remaining.
$----------------error end-----------------------------$

Comment out the glx module in Module section would eliminate the above
(EE) problem. but the rest errors remain. If I copy the SecurityPolicy
file from my Ubuntu machine to Debian box's /etc/X11/xserver. the only
problems left are xkb_ related errors and the fatal error part.

I even aptitude purge the x-window-system away and load it back. But
it still not work. Do I need to reinstall the whole Debian Etch?

Thanks a lot for your patience and help! I do appreciate it!

Blessings,
Rocky
