Comment 19 for bug 406865

Concerning the X crash: this should have been fixed a while ago (see bug #401067), if you have this issue with an up-to-date system would you please collect a backtrace (see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Backtracing) and open a new bug?

For the rest from what I can see the problem is fixed in newer x and mesa packages (and maybe others?) - i.e. works well in fedora - but they aren't included in this release of ubuntu.
