Reload Gnome and run Torsmo program for example with my configuration file (http://www.tbs-software.com/morgoth/files/private/.torsmorc) Normaly I run it using 'torsmo -a top_left -x 10 -y 64 -d'

Ok, I can indeed see a problem when using that torsmo program (note that
I didn't have to disable desktop rendering). So there is no "gnome is
unuseable with EXA" problem. Instead, there is a "Torsmo makes gnome
unuseable" problem.

I'll have a look when I find some time.

BTW. Whoever packages Tormsmo could think about putting a _sane_ default
config file instead of having that stuff try to poke random i2c devices.
