I guess the newer 0.1.8 is needed to support Radeon 9600's. I'm curious as to whether other people have the same massive screen corruption problems returning from X as I do. If not, probably best to keep the new driver. (Maybe I should go out and buy myself a new Radeon. :-) I have been using ATI's private DRI/DRM kernel module driver (fglrx) in concert with XFree 4.2.0 for quite some time.
