Hi, I noticed your post at debian.org when I was scroogling for info' on the 
catalyst xorg1.7 incompatibility. 
 
I have been using Arch for a while, & due to the rolling release upgrade 
system, 
those of us that were using catalyst 9.10 found that xorg1.7 is incompatible. 
 
Here is a list of files that we must not upgrade so that catalyst will still 
work: 
 
xf86-video-vesa xorg-server xf86-input-evdev xf86-input-keyboard 
xf86-input-mouse 
 
You can add xf86-input-synaptics to that list if you are using a notebook & it 
is 
appropriate. 
 
For those using 64bit systems, the upgraded lib32-* files work fine. 
 
Going to the page in the following link:  
 
http://www.archlinux.org/packages/?sort=-last_update&arch=&repo=&q=xorg&last_update=&limit=50
 
 
will give you the date we got hit with this problem 31-10-09, & more 
importantly 
the versions of the files listed above that are incompatible. 
 
I hope I made sense to you in this note, & that this info' is of help to you & 
any others suffering from this pain.  The workaround at least isn't too 
difficult, it just means downgrading 5 or 6 files. 
 
Regards, 
 
handy
