[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1083032]
Hi Tormod, I'm happy to tell you that the problem is now fixed. I'm writing from the affected computer. The latest version (xf86-video-savage-2.3.7-1 + savage-dri-7.11.2-5) has fully sort it out now. So, I owe you a million thanks: 100 x Thanks! Let me tell you that I appreciate the effort and time you've spent in the resolution of this issue.

Hi Tormod, Sure, I will do it, but I'm not able to right now. Unfortunately, I'm traveling for business and we'll not go back home until beginning of November where my personal laptop is. I know it's quite a lot of time, but take for granted that I'll let you know as soon as I test it out. Thanks a lot for your amazing effort and work.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1083032]
Hi Tormod, Thanks for your prompt response and assistance. I have tried the suggested options, but I'm still having the same issue, no change at all. - http://pastebin.com/yAgshj2V Is there any other work around? When is it expected to have a fix for it?
