I gave 4.2.1 pre1v1 a try on my laptop, yielding the following issues. It's the first 4.2.x prerelease I've tried, so my apologies in advance if I'm digging up old documented bugs. Please Cc me on replies. Pixmaps rendered by libgtk1.2 are corrupted (screenshot at http://devin.com/cruft/xf4.2.1-0p1v1_pixmapcorruption.png). This does not seem to impact gtk2's images. Various bits of the gnome2 panel leave visual artifacts (incomplete redraws at the edges of pixmaps) as things slide around during the usual login loading. Under uncertain conditions (it's hard to reproduce), window contents vanish when opaque-moved (the backing region of the root window comes along instead); some or all of the window decorations remain visible. This seems to be associated with switching back to X from a console. If UseFBDev is unset or false, the xserver crashes with "(EE) R128(0): Cannot read V_BIOS (5)" and a sigsegv. 4.1 from Sid did this too. Otherwise, on brief testing, things look okay.
