Thank you Andy MacLean. Patched versions of libpciaccess and xserver-xorg-video-mga are now available in my PPA. And yes - after installing them xserver starts up fine with the old-style xinerama based xorg.conf. I could not see any disadvangates during a couple minutes of testing.
I recognize everybody planning to install patched versions has noticed Andy's comment that patches are quick hacks, not perfect. While using Hardy's xorg might be much a better option I'd like to offer these packages as a quick and easy workaround. https://launchpad.net/~anttimr/+archive -- Xinerama broken since intrepid on MGA https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/292214 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
