Luke, if it still doesn't work for you, it means that you have another
bug than the one reported here. Please file a new bug, and if you can,
please file a new bug upstream, where you attach a log from running the
latest version.

You can always install the latest 6.6.3 version instead. The drivers are
generally progressing, but with major rework being done, there might be
some regressions for some configurations. 6.8 is not even fully released
yet so we can expect some improvements before then. However, the 6.8

DDC probing. My monitor resolutions and sync ranges are correctly configured in
xorg.conf
however, yet with the connectortable option mentioned in my previous comment, I
only get 640x480
resolution.
I wish there were a way to revert to the behavior in feisty. How is it
that drivers regress like this?

The ConnectorTable 4,1,1,1,0,1,2,1 works for me, but as already stated, this
causes no signal
to be sent to the monitor, until one switches away and back to X.

Michael, you're right. Video overlays don't work with that setting.
I found another one with which the overlays do work: 4,1,1,1,0,1,2,1
However, this setting has a different problem: When the X server
starts, the monitor goes into power save mode. To get picture, I have

Michael, try different values for ConnectorTable option as described in:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12525
Maybe your MacMini's hardware is a bit different and it needs different
ConnectorTable values too. If that's the case, we should try to find
those differences and file a new

Marcus, have you tried using an Xv app such as totem? I found that when
I used your setting, videos wouldn't display on the overlay (totem would
just show a blank black rectangle).

I upgraded to gutsy today and it hosed X on my Mac Mini. I was happy to
see the 6.7.194 package appear, but it has been of little help on my
PPC-based Mac Mini with a Dell 2000FP DVI-connected monitor.
I attempted a sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, which appears to
correctly detect the monitor
Interestingly, if I connect the same monitor via the Apple DVI-VGA
adapter using the monitor's D-SUB input, X _does_ start up OK (even
using the same ModeLine, AFAICT)

I hope the MacModel option gets inserted automatically by the Gutsy
