my 9200 with X.org/Mesa CVS from not so long ago, is stablish, i.e. I can
play quake3 ut2003 for a good while, my problems only seem to start when I
do something like glxgears/a couple of rss screensavers in windows and
gtk-demo... single fullscreen apps to me seem sound...

I've got Debian installed on my PC I must reboot into it and try my
tests...
