I have Mesa 6.5.2 it seems (slackware-12.0 standard): OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI G400 20061030 AGP 2x x86/MMX+/3DNow!+/SSE OpenGL version string: 1.2 Mesa 6.5.2 The bit of the problem sketched above -- the gears just sitting there in the upper left corner of the screen and not moving alongside their window is fully reproduceable.

I've noticed before the Matrox driver seems to get little attention/testing so maybe that's just it. A G550 is ofcourse in graphics-time a Model T by now. I'm rather decidedly not a graphics person so I don't care a lot but every time I try to do something fashionable (run Google Earth for example) I notice things are horribly, horribly broken. X bugs I do not find very interesting (there's just too many) and the kernel bugs are requiring more time to reproduce than I have available. If the BUGs as posted aren't enough for a diagnosis, please consider the report withdrawn.
