Bug#449211: xserver-xorg-video-ati: no video sync when dri enabled



Hi Brice,

You wrote:

Can we expect this DisplayPriority "BIOS" to be automatically enabled
by the driver when needed, in some future version? Or is Joachim going
to keep the option in xorg.conf for ever?

When deciding this, the argument should probably not focus too much on my (Joachim's) situation because now that I have this setting it is not a big deal to keep it. The case is much more serious for somebody who attempts to install Debian on a system that has this problem. In that case the X Window system will appear not to work and only an expert will be able to get it working.

This will probably depend on how widespread the problem is likely to be in the field. How many cheap Radeon cards are known to be affected by this?

Thanks,

Joachim
