Interesting suggestions; thanks -- I will indeed file an enhancement request. > You're welcome, thanks for verifying. I'd like to merge these bugs, but > I'm not sure which severity is more appropriate, opinions? IMHO, on account of there being a workaround, I think normal priority is more appropriate. I had not noticed earlier, but now it seems right to downgrade it because there is a fix of sorts available. I seem to remember seeing a patch for Xorg, on their bug tracking system, which I imagine will get in at some point. At least until then this workaround will suffice. Perhaps some note to R200 owners could be put into the Debian package to warn then (via Debconf, I was thinking, if they select the ati or radeon driver)? [ I'm not familiar with the packaging policy but if that was possible before the bug is fixed, it may be of use. ] Thanks again for your time and help, best regards, -- Matthew T.
