## 3.2. Known Problems

- There are problems with some Cirrus laptop chipsets (75xx). The driver seems to work for some people, but not others. Until someone with the appropriate hardware can look into this, these problems are unlikely to be fixed. If you wish to work on this, please contact us. We don't need testers, we need people willing and able to fix the problems.
- There are problems with some of the Trident laptop chipsets. The driver seems to work in a limited way for some people, but not others. Until someone with the appropriate hardware can look into this, these problems are unlikely to be fixed. If you wish to work on this, please contact us. We don't need testers, we need people willing and able to fix the problems.
- We have had some reports of apparently random lockups with some Mystique cards. We have not been able to reproduce this problem, and have no fix for it.
- There is a drawing bug in the MGA driver that shows up when running `viewfax'. We have no fix for this problem yet.
- Some people have reported problems with some newer Rage II cards. This problem is currently being investigated. When we have a fix for it, we will make it available.
- We've had a report that the SVGA server will cause a lockup on some SVR4 versions (UnixWare 1.x) with some Chips and Technologies chips. A workaround for this problem is to use the "xaa_no_color_exp" option.
- It is possible to use a setuid root X server as a denial of service which blocks reserved ports. A workaround for this is to not have the X server setuid, and have it started by xdm. The X servers do not need to be setuid root when started by xdm because xdm runs as root.
