The display-corrupting problem that appeared in 4.2.99.4 (as I described at
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg00997.html) are still
present in 4.3.rc1 .

However, I've tried using an older version of trident_drv.o from 4.2.99.3 ,
with the rest of the binaries from 4.3.rc1 .  This does not suffer from the
bug (the only bugs are the ones that occur when width > 384 - presumably
memory limitations).  So it seems that the thing that broke it must have
been the change to trident_dac.c made at
http://cvsweb.xfree86.org/cvsweb/xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/drivers/trident/trident_dac.c.diff?r1=1.69&r2=1.70
This is meant to fix some thinkpad 760s (namely 760EL), but breaks mine
(760ED).  I know it's unlikely, but: is there anyone else with a thinkpad
760 that's noticed this problem?  What exactly was this change meant to fix?
