If you are interested in patching (or fixing this bug), check out this link:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToFix

Also, join #ubuntu-bugs or #ubuntu-motu on IRC (freenode), and ask any questions you have.

Ubuntu's IRC channels (and instructions on how to use IRC) are found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat.

What most likely will happen to this bug:
1) someone at X.org will fix this bug
2) the fix will be incorporated into a future version of the drivers from X.org
3) Debian will package the future version from X.org
4) Ubuntu will import Debian's package

If you'd like to help with the process, follow the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToFix, post your patch here, and subscribe ubuntu-universe-sponsors (as described in the "HowToFix" wiki page). It also would be helpful to get your patch into Debian. Ask around on #ubuntu-motu for help with that.
