Package: xserver-xorg-video-ati

Severity: normal

when I look at the output of xrandr I see negative refresh rates not
only confusing me but also e.g. gnome-display-properties (i.e. I can
no longer change resolutions on the fly with that tool)

$ xrandr

I am using MergedFB on a titanium pbook 15". Here is the relevant device section:

My powerbook died some time ago, but IIRC it was indeed fixed at some
point (but I don't remember the version and I cannot test it anymore)

Especially as we are now on xorg 7.1/2/3 I think this can be closed.
