Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

Actually three bugs:
1) With my computer the X1300 card comes up with a large lined block cursor.  I have reason (during booting) to think this is a BIOS problem.  

2) Fixing that with SWcursor in xorg.conf works, but then setting "xrandr  --output DVI-0 --auto --left-of VGA-0 --auto" later in a cript  causes the xserver to: restart->login->restart-> etc....   over and over.   If it's not in the strart up the cursor is ok but I don't have an extended "screen".  Excuting xrandr...  above crashes the server; and so on.
3) I fixed the problem via xorg.conf "RightOf" after a lot of diddling.

4) The "radeon" driver doesn't have the correct display parameters for
the ACER AL2216W moniter; but that also can be fixed in xorg.conf.

I feel that I have enough system control to reproduce all three failures at will.  I am just looking for the correct place to post the various log files; and guidance on what files are of interest.
