Ref: ports/116851 Hi folks, sorry, I made a mistake: I didn't know that http://bugs.freedesktop.org _is_ the official Xorg PR database (it looked to me more like some linux usergroup). I spent the last night restoring my old installation from tape, and then working myself line by line thru the Xserver sourcecode, so to understand what exactly is happening there. I will talk to Tilman Sauerbeck about that. In short, the reason why this did work with Xorg 6.9 seems to be that they didnt test for the size. So they didnt recognize the problem (if it is one, at all), continued to read the Bios, and had success. rgds, PMc
