Some nice bugfixes
A couple of issues that have been bothering me seems to be fixed in this release.
I'm just crossing my fingers and hope that the awful XVideo crasher is gone. Driver seems to be working just fine, so far.

A couple of issues that have been bothering me seems to be fixed in this release.
- Corruption when enabling my external CRT is gone, nice, no need to work-around by re-initializing with xrandr/xrefresh after enabling second display, anymore.
- XVideo crasher
An X segmentation fault no longer occurs when launching SUZI/textured video. Further details can be found in topic number 737-35214
- From the Phoronix article related to the new release:
There are also a few fixes such as preventing freezes when resuming from OpenGL screensavers ..
