The other reported tdfx problem is the one where changing resolutions can
cause the X server to crash - happens on 4.1.0 and on late pre-4.1.0 DRI
trunk. This is on a V5 5500 in my case. It is not easily reproducible, so I
have not been able to get an X server log (it usually happens when in run
level 5, and the automatic restart of the X server by gdm overwrites
/var/log/XFree86.0.log)
