Package: xserver-xorg_7.1.0-7 Hi all,
[Linux 2.4.27-1-386 #1 Fri Sep 3 06:24:46 UTC 2004 i686 GNU/Linux] after upgrading to Etch and Xorg, X is not working as nicely as with XFree86 with my ATI-RADEON 9200 (RV280). I wonder whether this depends on Xorg packages being focused on new hardware stuff or we are in the realm of minor bugs. Hereunder there are a few comparative informations taken from two logs (one referring to the current Xorg, the other being the last log produced running XFree86 under latest Sarge). Of course, I would send you the full logs, if so required. Thanks for your attention. Regards, Ennio. PS: I tried also with linux-image 2.6.17-2-686 with worst results: getting sequence of pipe symbol (|) in alternate colours in the moving bar (index bar?) of mutt, when run from console.
