Or it could be something that is RV6xx specific? There was another lad
who posted on the list with an identical issue, but didnt have the same
card. The radeonhd driver is working flawlessly except when DRI is enabled.
Are you testing under the same version of xorg though? Have you tested
on an amd64 system with 7-stable or are you testing with current?
[root at desktop /usr/home/alex]# ls -l /var/db/pkg |grep xorg-ser
drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Feb 19 11:13 xorg-server-1.5.3_5,1
Could it be an xorg issue?
