I'm in the middle of moving to Pittsburgh and starting graduate school;  
I saw some posts on lkml where BenH found that the Radeon 7500 worked OK 
if you told it to use noaccel, so that does sound like a problem in my code.  
Unfortunately (fortunately?) I don't see the issue on my Radeon 9000, so 
it'll be hard for me to track down, and I won't really have free time for
a few weeks :-/
