As nobody seems to have a clever idea how to test the suggested patch, I used brute force to do it:
- patched and build xserver-xorg-core (for amd64, in pbuilder)
- modified the tribe 5 cd to include the new .deb
Unfortunately I got the colored blocks again during installation.
After the installation was complete and the system was rebooted, I verified the right xserver-xorg-core was installed (ubuntu7) and the changelog included my change entry.
