I think a lot of the issues were actually 64 bit stuff thats recently been fixed any chance you could try 25.1 ? or a cvs build just to see. I believe the problems were down in the directfb layer so it would be nice to know if its there or higher up in gdk/cairo. What we really need is a commited developer with a PowerPC to trace this down thats the main problem.
