Hi,

I've been toying around with the development version of ubuntu on my
laptop with a K8M800 and ran into some problems.

With their 2.6.26 kernel Xorg starts running with 100% cpu usage as soon
as I move the cursor, a minute later the machine hangs. Oddly enough
this doesn't happen at a display manager prompt, at least not with the
ones I've tried..

With the hardy 2.6.24 kernel most gtk apps seem to  hit an assert and
segfault when they open a dialog or menu.

This is the message they print:

(gimp:5262): Gdk-CRITICAL **: get_monitor: assertion `monitor_num <
screen_x11-> n_monitors' failed

Both issues don't happen with the vesa driver. I've tried trunk and
the version of openchrome that comes with ubuntu. Xorg version is
1.4.99.905. I would have tried unichrome too but that doesn't seem to
build against that version.

I'm mostly curious if openchrome is supposed to work with a that kind
of system.
