If I recall correctly there was something about sshing into the machine
and debugging xorg which as far as I can remember we don't have
instructions on how to do.

Also - I don't actually find the debug instructions as "noobie friendly"
as perhaps the bibisect instructions. I was thinking a concrete example
(like a walk through on the particular bug) would be nice for people
like me who lack some of the skills without having my hand held at least
the first one or two times.

Just thoughts out loud though. I don't expect anyone to do it unless
they want to.


Best,
Joel
