Paul,
Sorry for the delay.
Thank you for your tip: Indeed without capitalize extension name, xorg
was throwing an error about no such extension.
I only want to finally confirm that the bug which I reported here
was fixed with upstream commit:
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/?id=1326ee0bc5eb858c3c00847b3ba65134e4ca2e2d
I had to manually apply this commit on top of 2:1.19.6-1, because every newer debian xorg
release is crashing during startup (probably something is wrong in nouveau driver according
to backtrace), but this seems totally another and not related bug.
Anyway - this bug is now fixed, so please close it. :-)
Thank you!
ps. I'll also close the upstream related bug.
regards,
