I can confirm this bug. I just upgraded from Dapper to the Edgy beta on an amd64 system, using the recommended "apt-get update; apt-get upgrade; apt-get dselect-upgrade", and on reboot got the same error. Running "apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-all" and manually editing the xorg.conf file (which had incorrect screen resolutions) seems to have fixed things.
