        <pre>the possible fix patch that's attached to this thread (in 2014) doesn't work
for me on this issue, even though I applied it (it doesn't apply cleanly on
latest git).

However, I noticed that if I turn off vsync via `vsync off` (see script
mentioned in <a class="bz_bug_link 
          bz_status_NEW "
   title="NEW - white screen with AccelMethod Glamor and xfwm4 with vsync on (unless vsync is off)"
   href="show_bug.cgi?id=111687">bug 111687</a>), then I install latest xf86-video-ati git, then exit
Xorg, then startx, it doesn't crash on startup! However, if I dare do `vsync
auto` (to turn on vsync without restarting X or xfwm4) then it instantly
crashes in the same place(apparently) as before.</pre>
