But, is it a normal (ordinary) bug of openchrome and Xorg 7.4 ? 
Is it right that the only way to get the X working on Xorg 7.4 is with the Option "XaaNoImageWriteRect"?
Are there any other people with that behavior?
Can I help on the development of the driver in any way?
Can I help to fix that bug or doing other thing?
