One of the problems is the large number of bugzilla entries on
bugzilla.redhat.com (40 bugs just against xorg-x11-drv-ati), and
upstream on
bugs.freedesktop.org, and the relationships between the two
lists is particularly hairy (definitely not a one-to-one relationship,
more like many-to-many ;-), and maybe a few maybe-to-none :-( ). So
sorting through the lists is not for the faint of heart...
Also that everyone thinks to say "me too" on existing bugs, even when
their problem is likely to not be the same bug at all. So, here's a PSA:
Please file unique driver bugs every time.
I'm much happier to have to duplicate things myself, than to have to
close a bug from A and have B reopen it because B is using a different
generation card but experienced a similar problem.
