--- Comment #13 from Jon Rosen holy.smoking.floorboards.batman@gmail.com 2010-01-04 16:21:07 --- I have not had problems with this in a while, now; even with a recent re-install. Although not positive, I think this is related to an addition to my xorg.conf:
Secion "Device" [...] Option "ModeValidation" "DoubleScanPriority" [...] EndSection
Either way, the issue is now solved for me as well.
