I hope that a happy X time will come around for you.

I committed a bunch of fixes to the glint driver as well:
- odd resolutions ( like 1440x900, 1366x768 etc. ) work properly now,
   including acceleration.
- both Permedia 2 and 3 now have EXA support, for shiny new Xorg. Kinda
   crude, but working.

This didn't get a whole lot of testing, only pm3 on macppc and pm2 on
sparc64 so far, and there is no xrender acceleration although both
chips should in theory be able to support at least part of it ( and the
XAA driver didn't do that either )

Thanks a lot. But I'm unable to change resolution on my alpha (pm3 Oxygen). I would use 1280x1024x24 and I don't know how to fix this resolution. Any idea ?

	Best regards,
