I am replying from Notes under wine on a FireGL T2 T42p running fglrx and I
see no problem other than some black icons in notes:

- Mandriva Cooker
- kernel 2.6.15 (compiled by me)
- xorg 6.9 (from Cooker - by the way it hangs HARD if I try to use the xorg
radeon driver...)
- fglrx 8.23.7 (the current level)
- cvs wine (updated every couple days including today)

fwiw, I had held off on xorg 6.9 for months due to that hard-hang problem.
I ran xorg 6.8 and various levels of fglrx until this week and Notes under
wine every day with no problems.  I finally decided to try xorg 6.9 again
when I read on rage3d that it was supported by the latest fglrx driver.
Seems to work just great for me.
