firefox3 still doesn't work properly and hits me when starting with this

Xlib:  extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":0.0".


Looks like libraries (Xext among others) already support the XGE extension:

but the current the 1.5 Xorg server does not support and the 1.6 release is behind schedule a bit:

I keep getting this error after upgrade of X today but everything works as usual.

Then firefox3 freezes forever, showing something like the background or
pixel remnants of windows/picograms moving over its window.

The firefox problem is unrelated I think to the message above (as demonstrated later in the thred)
