I've had several reports of DRI not working after a screen resize using
mergedfb code.  I haven't really had time to tackle it, and
unfortunately, i'm not real familiar with how DRI interacts with a mode
change or xrandr.  I was hoping someone on this list could point me to
where to look for DRI and mode change stuff.  

As background, mergedfb provides a single framebuffer with two
viewports looking into it.  HW accelerated 3D works fine on both heads
in the inital mode, however I've gotten reports from users that the DRI
stops working when you change "metamodes" using ctrl-alt-+/-. 
metamodes are just mode combinations that describe the mode on each
head for mode changes (e.g., 1024x768-1024x768 1024x768-800x600, etc.).

More details about the problem are listed here:

Also, i'm not real familiar with xrandr, but using that seems to break
the dri as well when in mergedfb mode.  I'm not sure the dri even
officially supports xrandr yet, but I thought I'd mention it.

Thanks for you help.

Alex
