I'm sorry to tell you this, but that delta (4.1.0-16woody4 to 4.3.0.dfsg.1-8) is so huge as to be useless for determining what precisely may have caused the regression. I'd like to request a couple more pieces of information: 1) Does turning XAA acceleration off prevent the problem from recurring? (Search for "NoAccel" in the XF86Config-4(5x) manual page.) 2) Can you try various earlier versions in the 4.3.0.dfsg.1 release series to see if any of them rectify the problem? You can find these at snapshot.debian.net. Please start with the most recent prior to yours (-7) and work your way backwards. -- G.
