problem with Xxorg - testing update -- vesa driver on ati x1400

[Imre Vida <Imre.Vida@anat.uni-freiburg.de>]

Hi,

i am running Debian testing on a IBM/Lenovo Thinkpad T60p.

For the graphics, i have chosen the vesa driver from xorg - 
as it works together well with software suspend.
This combination worked quit well uptill now: X applications
were sufficiently fast (i don't really need 3d acceleration).

But since the last update i made a few days ago, some X operations 
became very slow (e.g. scrolling in the browser or text editor; 
moving, resizing a window on the desktop, in contrast paging 
[new content in the window] or opening a new window is still fast).

Does anybody have any idea what could be the problem?
I would appreciate any hint how this problem can be solved.

Cheers
