Tormod I tried to compile the older (hardy) driver but without success (it spited some errors while compiling, I am not expert in this stuff, sorry. But I believe these errors did not look like a dependency problem...). However I was able to compile newer versions. So my guess is that the hardy

Hi guys! Michal Yes, SiS sucks. If I had money, I would buy another machine... Anyway, I just downgraded to hardy version of xorg, and everything runs fine (see http://dailyvim.blogspot.com/2008/12/ubuntu-downgrading- xorg.html)! No trash on screen, full resolution 1280x800, pure happiness. A

I just checked openSUSE 2008.11 and this problem exists there, too. I suppose it's too complicated to be fixed by Ubuntu team. As I see no feedback at bugs.freedesktop.org, I have one more question: is there any problem with downgrading X.org to 7.3 version in Intrepid? Are there any problems with

You can try filing a bug upstream (X.org) on bugs.freedesktop.org The bug is marked Declined for Intrepid because someone had marked it Nominate for Intrepid and there's no other way to undo this. It is pointless to nominate a bug for a release if there's no fix yet. Once it's fixed in a
