It works fine with XAA in both 16 and 24 bit modes. The hardware is Lemote Fuloong2F (Loongson2 little-endian MIPS CPU). So it is possible the bug can be MIPS-specific. According to a comment in https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9611, SiS driver EXA support was broken at some point. Is it still not supposed to be working?

As some investigation showed, in 1.12 releases the X.Org has dropped XAA whatsoever and now the SiS driver is trying to use EXA... which is broken... and it fails. Can't believe this has been reported 2 years ago and there isn't even a single comment from X.org/Freedesktop... Obviously, they're good in dropping things out and not so good in creating working things. So, this is to confirm: the bug is still there, wild and furious.
