So, the general solution to this is using a future version of X.org
server, namely 6.9 RC3, which would better support your video card....

This means we should reassign this bug wherever it pertains...

Thanks for your patience investigating this bug. I'm pretty sure that
the Debian X Striking Force will deal with it in the future.
