Christian, we're all better off if you report your problem separately instead of adding it as a comment on another bug report. Comments on a bug saying essentially "I have this problem..." are at best ignored and at worst very confusing if we start mixing up the commenters problem with the problem of the original reporter (and the difference may be very subtle).

I don't mean to be harsh, but we only focus on the problem of the original reporter in each bug report and we ask that all comments also focus on that problem. For xorg-related bugs we much prefer duplicate bug reports over "me too" comments, since issues that look the same often turn out to be different underlying problems.
