I know NV1x isn't anything spectacular or exciting to work on, however
on that notebook I don't have any choice.
Therefore I would be really grateful for advice how to narrow the
issues reported down.

Even finding a way to selectively turn off the accel-paths which cause
the issue would be a big win, as with noaccel the system is barely
useable.

Thank you in advance, Clemens
