           Summary: Radeon driver doesn't handle XFree86-Bigfont properly
           Product: xorg
           Version: 7.1
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Driver/Radeon
        AssignedTo: xorg-driver-ati at lists.x.org
        ReportedBy: jonrysh at pacbell.net


Startup of xboing (should I admit this) fails inside the invocation of:
    XLoadQueryFont(display, "-adobe-helvetica-bold-r-*-*-24-*-*-*-*-*-*-*")
    in init.c line 272 -- edited here for clarity.
Some work with gdb seems to show that the problem is at the reply from the
server to a request for info about the XFree86-Bigfont extension, which the
server finds offensive in some way.

I am running FC6, the driver in question is in the package:
    xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.6.3-1.fc6

I downloaded xboing from:
    http://ftp.x.org/contrib/games/xboing2.4.tar.gz
