I know I'm a little late in responding to this thread, but I just found
out that 6.8.0-r1 breaks xinerama/dual+ display support for anyone
running the Radeon chipset. And no, I'm not using the ati-drivers
package because that doesn't work for me since I'm running an r100
version of the Radeon. I'm not sure how many xinerama users we have out
there, but this is quite annoying. I've already commented on two bugs
related to this.

I'm curious, are there any Radeon users out there running Xinerama that
aren't having problems with this version?

I've also noticed some quirkiness with the Radeon on my laptop. Now,
whenever I close the lid for my laptop, X won't come back up when I open
it back up. I have to go to a virtual terminal, then go back to the X
term and it'll show back up.
