I just returned from vacation, and so I thought that I would upgrade my v8 debs to v11. What I discovered, however, is that the v11 debs are unusable for me because font drawing is all screwed up in 15-bpp and 16-bpp depths for the mga driver.
8-bpp and 24-bpp depths work fine, but I need 16 bpp in order to get hardware acceleration for OpenGL. Downgrading to v8 solved the problem for the time being. The problem that I observe in 16-bpp mode with the v11 debs is that most characters appear grayed out, and, for example, some ghost characters appear frozen in place while I scroll using '/usr/bin/less' in an xterm window. -- Thomas E.
