Yes, but I noted that the same problem arises with either vesa or mga: root succeeds but ordinary user fails. The mga X driver is no longer maintained and has it own problems which is why I tested with both vesa and mga. Nevertheless even mga works as root and has been working until a couple of weeks ago. So I am pretty sure that *this* bug is not directly associated with the particular driver. (Or they share common buggy code..)
