Trying to follow that link to Novell's bug tracker redirects me to a login page.

I have the following issues with Compiz and xrandr:

  * Sometimes after you change the desktop size Compiz doesn't notice and renders only to a part of the area, keeping the rest filled with garbage. Sometimes it stops rendering at all, so you see the old picture (plus some garbage in new areas) and a moving mouse cursor. Alt+F2, compiz --replace, Enter fixes this.

  * Sometimes after I shrink the desktop size mesa crashes the X server with "Assertion `intel->batch->cliprect_mode != REFERENCES_CLIPRECTS' failed".

I never thought to attribute those problems to this patch. I suppose I could revert to pristine mesa and do some testing, if I can find the time.
