That computer is off right now, so I'm not sure exactly what version
of the driver I have on it - whatever's current in unstable.  Anyway,
I haven't seen most of the problems in some time, but the "window
boundaries wiggle" problem is still there.  It's not nearly as bad as
it used to be, but I can reliably reproduce it by placing a window so
that part of it shows on each monitor.  It sometimes also happens with
windows that are entirely on one monitor, depending on what's showing
in the window (certain web pages reliably do it, e.g.
http://tinderbox.mozilla.org/Firefox/ ).  In this case, moving the
window a few pixels horizontally often makes it stop.
