unfortunately the configuration syntax in XF86Config-4 is less than
machine readable, so there's no way for debconf to automatically
figure out what your configuration is.  your best bet is to open up
a copy of your current config, and use that as a basis for answering
debconf's questions when you dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86, or just
manage the file manually.
