Bug#429609: root-tail problems with xserver-xorg-core 1.3




Hi!

I narrowed it down to the following upgrade:
[UPGRADE] xserver-xorg-core 2:1.1.1-21 -> 2:1.3.0.0.dfsg-11

After that, root-tail stoped working. That was the only package I upgraded in that session. Then, I downgraded it again:
[DOWNGRADE] xserver-xorg-core 2:1.3.0.0.dfsg-11 -> 2:1.1.1-21
And root-tail worked again.

I tried the free nv driver, both the stable (1.2.0-3) and testing version (1:2.1.2) with xserver-xorg-core 2:1.3.0 and got the same results.

Oh, then upgrading or downgrading xserver-xorg-video-nv doesn't matter
since this driver isn't used at all.

Is there a way you try without the proprietary nvidia driver? I'd like
to be sure it's not caused by it. Changing nvidia into nv in
/etc/X11/xorg.conf (and maybe removing a couple non-trivial option)
should do the trick.
