I've read lots of hints toward radeon being broken in Debian, but I'm
happily using xserver-xorg 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 right now without any problems
(well, apart from the EmulateWheelClick not working after it worked in
the experimental pre-releases, I just hope the patch from
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5071 makes it into Debian
soon, and dual-head seems broken). 

What exactly is the problem? Too many bugreports on xserver-xorg, any
specific one? Or is it DRI-related? (no DRI for me atm with the
PCI-Express card)
