Gordon, the commit seems the same as http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2008-April/034707.html. However based on based on comment#2, Seems Stefan still has some problem with this patch.

Stefan, would you like to list the issues when you use compiz with this patch? It will be helpful for upstream to track what the side effect is?

Thanks
