I've read all the post and I can't understand some statements...

-> We can't take this patch to the repositories.. because it can fail...

Well... NOW it doesn't work at all. So it's better to have something
that "can fail (or not)" rather than something that "does fail"

-> Changing this, can bring new bugs and it's too late

No, it isn't. There are many (but really many) users with fglrx driver
that are affected by this issue. And there's time to create a "team"
(call it as you wish) at the forums to test the new packages and file
bugs. Just creating and sticking a thread asking for support will work..
I'm sure, I would help too.

-> There's no time to solve this

Better now than tomorrow :P  The alternative is giving no support for
XGL at all in Feisty. And that's not an acceptable alternative for many
users. They surely will search for 3rd party repos (is that the security
everybody wants for them?) or simply stay with Edgy till Feisty+1


At least that's what I think.
Regards
