If you updated again since you originally sent this message, hopefully the HW cursor problem is now fixed. If not, let me know. > Also - it seems that after X server terminates, it does not free the >kernel module, which prevents consequent X servers from running.

What are you running that uses the DRI? Does this still happen if you start the X server and exit it immediately without running any DRI clients? > Since the driver got a major rewrite, I will ask the questions I asked >some time ago: is there any chance of enabling 1400x1050 graphics mode? >It is not returned as a valid mode by the VESA BIOS, so it would >probably need a hard-wired code in the driver. Also - what about the >TV-Out capability? The driver still sets video modes exclusively via the video BIOS, so unless the video BIOS has a 1400x1050 mode, it still won't work. If there is such a BIOS mode, and for some reason it isn't getting used, let me know.
