Interesting.  You can tell for sure if you do an "fxtv -debug startup".  If
you see one of these messages:

    XF86DGA not available...X Server isn't local.
    XF86DGA extension not found
    XF86DGA{QueryVersion,QueryDirectVideo}() failed
    XF86DGAQueryDirectVideo() reports DGA not avail

you're not using DGA.

BTW, I'm also running 4.0.3 on 4.3-STABLE (from 6/24).

If you "don't" see one of these messages, I'd love to know how it is
working for you.  Can I get your XF86Config?

Randall
