You need to provide more information including your hardware and xorg
configuration for others to reproduce and fix any issues. Might be
better in a bug report.

I have already provided my Smolt UUID
(a141fbad-6bc1-419a-a5e7-1c247d90184a), monitor band/model (ViewSonic
PF790), and here is my xorg.conf,
http://www.pembo13.com/pub/xorg.conf.watson.20070918
If there is any more information I can let me know, if not, I will
elevate this to a bug report.
