Today I installed kernel 2.6.30-rc8- now testing.
When I tried 2.6.30-rc2 (only runs with no UXA setting) my desktop kept freezing and had to unfreeze by switching terminals often.
With 2.6.30-rc8 (no UXA) I get a clean login screen and no desktop freezes (after 30 mins)
I have now switched on UXA in xorg.conf and I still get a clean login screen. No freezes on desktop in first 10 mins (with earlier kernel I would have had several freezes in that time).
So first impression is that rc8 has fixed the graphics problems that I was getting.
