Bug#798317: xserver-xorg-video-radeon: Strange interaction of radeon config, screenshot and x11vnc

[Luis Mochan]

I turned off RenderAccel, turned on EXAPixmaps and
rebooted. Everything seems to work fine now; I got into X and
screenshot captures correctly the screen images and x11vnc displays
the screen correctly.
Thanks,
Luis
