Package: xserver-xorg-core Version: 2:1.1.1-21 Followup-For: Bug #422231
So I downgraded a bunch of packages. It didn't make a change. After that I remembered that at first were thinking that the bug might be related to my kernel upgrade. So about 5 boots later I'am firmly confident that the problem shows itself only on kernel 2.6.20. On this computer I have compiled my kernel from debian sources with the vesa-tng patch. On the other computer the kernel is the official debian kernel 2.6.20-1-k7. On 2.6.18 self compiled it's all good. Also The black rectangles are only shown when in X. Not when I'am in a console with framebuffer. Might the kernel be the source of the bug after all? Or is the kernel doing something different and xorg is not upto it yet? I'll try to compile the latest from kernel.org and see if its any different. -- Package-specific info: Contents of /var/lib/x11/X.roster: xserver-xorg /etc/X11/X target unchanged from checksum in /var/lib/x11/X.md5sum.
