Or is there more guidance that someone can give me? Thanks, cheers. I'd suggest you check out bugs that you think you will be able to reproduce and see if you can debug the issue further. There is also a lot of information on http://wiki.x.org and http://dri.freedesktop.org that you can browse through to get a feeling of how things (should) work.
