If you're facing issues with XMir acceleration detection and crashes when using the radeon hd7850 video card. The error you're encountering, undefined symbol: exaGetPixmapDriverPrivate, typically points to a problem with the xf86-video-ati driver, especially if it is not fully compatible with the current version of Xorg or your system configuration. To resolve this, try updating your video drivers or switching to the amdgpu driver, which may offer better support for newer Radeon cards. Also, ensure that your system is fully updated with the latest patches. If you're running a custom setup, check the configurations in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and make sure everything is properly aligned.
