A ton of new glint code was just committed to XFree86 CVS by Sven Luther, and this code (if it compiles) will show up in v19. Consider trying that when I release it in the next day or so. OTOH, since it's Sven Luther code, it may not help you at all, or even make things worse. >:-) In the meantime, please tell us exactly which Permedia card you are using. Get it from /var/log/XFree86.0.log and/or show us the appropriate line from lspci. -- G.
