Bug Description

The 9629 has problems with fullscreen opengl applications. On a lot of games, xorg hangs on a black screen, and switching to VT's isnt possible anymore. The system still responds to the power button by shutting down normally (even though the screen stays black all the time).
This is reported to be fixed by the latest beta driver (1.0-9742) (see http://www.vladsharp.com/node/6).
