I don't feel qualified to do that. Xpert@XFree86.Org is a mailing list
which the author of this code and other very competent XFree86 hackers read,
or if you're absolutely sure the fix is correct, please submit it to
fixes@XFree86.Org .

Michel:

I just don't see how using an uninitialized variable in an "if"
statement can be anything else but a bug.

You're probably right. Never meant to say otherwise.

You could have at least looked at the code in question before replying.

If I had enough time...

You are a member of XFree representing ppc linux aren't you?

Yes, but I don't have any experience with this code, and I'm not member of
the core team so I have to submit patches for inclusion as well. I was
referring you to places I thought would allow for faster inclusion.

keithp already put something in the CVS. It did not work with "ati", but
with fbdev (clgen).
The patch fixed it for me on the Pismo.

So what's in CVS only works for fbdev, Kevin's patch is needed for r128?

Its clearly needed for everyone, Keith already did the commit a few
hours ago.
