Hi Robert, Sorry to be a pest, I realize you have plenty of other issues to contend with atm, just wondering whether you have some ideas on what may be causing the issue I am experiencing when enabling DRI? I have disabled DRI for the time being because of the trailing mess that gets left behind on the screen when I drag windows on the screen. have there been any updates to the DRM code?
