I tried this: I updated as follows (from Slackware-current packages, dated March)
libdrm: 2.4.20 --> 2.4.23
pixman: 0.16.5 --> 0.20.2
xorg-server; 1.7.7 --> 1.9.5
mesa: 7.8.1 --> 7.9.2
and X wouldn't start
(EE) module ABI major version (6) doesn't match the server's version (8)
(EE) Failed to load module "vesa" (module requirement mismatch, 0)
(EE) Failed to load module "fbdev" (module does not exist, 0)
What did I leave out, or do wrong? Do I have to compile manually? I'm not keen on the
Option IgnoreABI
approach to this, and it probably leaves things tolerating each other more than working together.

1. xorg-server guys are bumping up required ABI versions at a rate of knots.
2. xf86-video-ati just checks what abi it's supposed to be
3. On my box it's getting that wrong, probably due to some outdated include file.
I have discovered /usr/include/xorg/xf86Module.h which requires video ABI 10 but it's getting 6 from somewhere. I'll do a methodical search today. The one fear I have is that mesa is picking it up. That's a mighty chunk to be trawling through.

and there is no stability problem without extra voltage and with....
the hardware of this system runs just great if the driver works the opteron 144-1,8ghz runs hat 2,7ghz and the hd4650 is very fast...
there is just a ugly software bug or maybe a software fixable hardware bug only fixed on windowsXP..
"agp aperture size in bios."
i really brudeforce all kind of settings in the bios there is no triggering for that stuff or what do you mean?

do you think "radeon.agpmode=-1" makes it better than that ?
