Comment(by atomo64):

 Sorry for the late response.

 Replying to [comment:1 schlobinux]:
 > Could you please build a new package from latest svn (revision 595) and
 have them test it ? It contains new hardware cursor code which might help
 with this problem. If it still doesn't work, I'll have a patch to test
 (same as changeset 595, but for VM800)
 > I don't see anything in the rev 570-577 range that could explain the HW
 cursor problem at first glance. Possibly, the user can add Option
 "SWCursor" to his xorg conf to workaround the problem, but a real fix
 would obviously be better.

 Just requested the user to try: r572, r574, r570 (rebuilt with current
 libs), r596, and r596 with the r595-like change for VIA_VM800. Will report
 back as soon as the user does.

 this is a laptop and thus using VBE for the modesetting, whereas #254 is a
 monitor using (or not) the EDID to set the resolution.

 I guess I should open a new ticket then. Is there any extra info that will
 be required that isn't already in the bug report at Debian?
