Thank you. But i have question about this patch. Why ati driver is very
slow in X.Org? Is it bug ati driver or X.Org?
as I wrote before, 'they' changed X a long time ago for intel drivers and
screwed over everybody else. So it is X fault - but X devs put the fingers
in
their ears, say it is everybody's else fault and sing lalala.
I really don`t understand this. X have spec and all must use it. X don`t
must use spec of intel. If X change spec then all must change drivers. Open
source driver work fine.
