Actually I did use reportbug, but it didn't show me the bug report because it is against xserver-common, not xserver-xfree86. Oh; I thought reportbug showed you all reports against the source package these days. Of course, as you noted, this is a prodigious number of bug reports in the case of XFree86. Even then, I could have missed the report. I suggest the f (filter) feature of reportbug. It's really the *only* way navigate the dizzying number of xfree86 bug reports. Sorry about the duplicate. No problem, you've got advice for next time. :) -- G.
