Hello. Some time ago, Vojtech Pavlik sent a message stating that he had found a critical bug in some VIA chipsets, and suggested a patch. The bug would "cause X to blank the screen when it should not, squid to terminate connections with a 'timeout' randomly and other nice effects." The problem is still present in test13-pre7 and in prerelease; X blanks like crazy sometimes here, and applying the patch solves the problem nicely here. This is a VIA Apollo Pro 133 system (VIA 693/596B) Not sure why it didn't go into the main tree, and since there's prerelease out there, I thought I'd send this message. (Were there problems with that patch?)
