I could be wrong, but I think you can spare yourself some xorg agony next time you update.
The fine lad that wrote "Envy" recommends removing your drivers with envy, BEFORE you update.
(if that was how you installed them)
After the update, the legacy drivers should give you a nice pretty desktop and install your drivers again with Envy.
