Just to follow up, since sysupgrading to the latest snapshot (on 15.3) I
cannot reproduce this problem. (All packages were updated too.)

Also my tentative test case, which resulted in the same symptoms, also
now functions without issue (fyi: run "vblank_mode=0 glxgears" and drag
the resulting window around wildly being sure to get it to go into/out of
fullscreen by hitting the edge of the desktop).

So now  just have to decide if I continue using Firefox or revert back to
Iridium (or Chrome). Decisions, decisions ... :)

Any ideas what I can or should do about my "dubious" kernel messages?
E.g. "0:31:5: mem address conflict 0xfe010000/0x1000"
What does that "0:31:5:" indicate?

Or the "not configured" messages like these for example:

It seems as if that Intel 300 chip is only partially supported. Maybe
that's not a significant problem? Though I worry a bit about the
"Thermal" message ... suggesting some temperature sensing may not be
working correctly.

The other good news is that the new (old) keyboard is working well :-)
