Good evening,

I've been using my box for a few days with the AGPMode set to "4" in a
permanent way without any trouble. We can seriously consider the bug as Fixed. 

Because I'm quite conservative with my home desktop I prefer not to use a git
beta driver, so I won't check that point.

One question remains : why have this trouble occured after a few months of
flawless behavior ?

I've just checked something on my OpenSuse box : the last bugfixes versions of
xorg-x11 & xorg-x11-xserver provided by openSuse are respectively 7.3-135.4 and
7.2-143.13.

I wonder if one of these bugfixes packages didnt provoke a regression ?

For 7.3-135.4 :

For 7.2-143.13 :
http://www.novell.com/linux/security/advisories/2008_27_xorg.html

Actually, considering that the trouble occured only for a couple of
weeks/months, I'm quite confident something went wrong with the openSuse
7.1-143.13 xorg-x11-xserver application set !

Expecting these thoughts could provide further help,

Best regards & thanks again,

Jean-Alexandre
