    I think it adequately demonstrates that you're unable to distinguish
    between problems that *a specific implementation of X* has, and problems
    that *the X system as a design* has. If one particular X server has
    a misfeature, the correct fix is to fix the server software.

    And in particular, it's *not* even an X problem, as you'd know if you bothered
    actually *reading* what you quoted:

    "It is hard to see how they could have done other -- that is how much evil the
    cards contain."

    So if you want to fix the *problem*, go learn enough about graphics to
    actually help design an open, non-evil chipset. That's the *real* problem,
    not whatever fantasized shortcomings of X itself you're trolling about.
