One further piece of information. The drawing errors always happen on the 
second screen.

It doesn't matter which screen (0 or 1) I map to which framebuffer (/dev/fb0 
or /dev/fb1), the drawing on screen 0 is correct, the drawing on screen 1 is 
corrupted.

I am wondering if it is even a problem with my driver now.   Xfree86 should 
be able to run with multiple fbdev drivers, right?

Thanks,
Noel.
