Hi Peter,

the patched driver doesn't work for me. I tried it again, but got black screen and mouse cursor, that I was able to move around and nothing more.
The only difference this time was, that CTRL-ALT-Backspace brought me to the Login-Window.
Unfortunately, when I tried to login, the session loaded somewhere to the middle (I could see my desktop and panel), but the Login-Mask with 'Username and Password' field stayed and there was no response. When I then pushed the restart button on GDM, it showed me some kind of failsafe-login window and then actually proceeded with the restart.

The only difference for me in comparison to the driver from the repos was, that there was no annoying flattering of the screen while GDM was loading,

In another, kind of related, bug report, has somebody suggested to remove 'xscreensaver-gl' and test again, because eventually 'gnome-screensaver' could have something to do with it, but this had no effect too.

Tell me, if I can help you with more information. (Logs?xorg.conf?, etc.)
