Changes: 
 xdebconfigurator (1.26) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Included xserver-xorg in package description.
   * Removed old unused code.
   * Stop using hwinfo for some monitor information as it using the running
     settings and not the capabilities of the hardware.
 .
 xdebconfigurator (1.25) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * Urgency set to medium as this upload fixed an important bug.
   * Do not use result from read-edid if EDID checksum fails as this
     results in strange modes on my laptop.
   * Fixing loop problem when get-edid sends its errors to stderr. Thanks
     to Dean Montgomery for bugreport and patch. (Closes: #380264)
   * Prefer discover2 over discover 1 as suggested in #387602.
   * Call discover2 and discover1 in different ways. Thanks to
     Petter Reinholdtsen for great bugreport. (Closes: #387602)

 .
   [ Morten Werner Olsen ]

     debhelper in the clean-target of debian/rules (thanks to Lintian).
   * Converted manpage (xdebconfigurator.8) to UTF-8.
   * Use defined path to run ddcprobe.

     in debian/sid again.
 .
 xdebconfigurator (1.22) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Reduce hwinfo dependency to recommends, because hwinfo currently
     is uninstallable because of problems with libsysfs.

     default depth if the "original" default depth is greater than the
     drivers maximum color depth. Also moving hwinfo from Suggest: to
     Depends: as hwinfo is the only tool able to find the driver's
     maximum color depth. (Closes: #319425)

       the great hardware detection tools. (Closes: #295693)

   * Finn-Arne Johansen

 .
 xdebconfigurator (1.13) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Otavio Salvador
     - Improve mouse detection with hwinfo so when running on 2.6 kernel it
       detects /dev/input/mice nicely.
   * Petter Reinholdtsen
     - Change debconf handling to create missing templates when setting
       the values.  This will make it possible to use xdebconfigurator
       even if xserver-xfree86 isn't installed.
     - Drop dependency on xserver-common and xserver-xfree86 to make it
       possible to use xdebconfigurator to find out which X server
       package to install. (Closes: #277990)
     - Print info on where the XFree86 driver name was fetched from.
