Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 1:7.0.23
Severity: normal
I totally fail to enable EXA. I've tried
Option "AccelMethod" "EXA",
Option "AccelMethod" "exa",
with or without AGP stuff,
with or without the composite extension,
I *always* get the XAA method loaded, as stated by the Xorg.0.log.

AAAAAAAH ! Sorry for the noise. I built this package myself a while ago
from the XSF svn while trying to get OpenGL working correctly. (main
issue fixed by this version was the GL array shift when a popup showed
up on top of it)
Thanks for the hint. EXA works with the version in sid. But it's damn
slow... going back to XAA...
