[PD] xorg + gem

[Ian Smith-Heisters]

I had a negative enough experience that I uninstalled Fedora and 
installed Debian for its XFree86. But I had already been tangling with 
XOrg compatibility and ATI's crappy drivers for months, so it was just 
the straw that broke the camel's back.

I'm going to stay away from XOrg for quite some time now, until it's 
either the default for everything I need or I have a lot of time to 
spend tweaking things.

Sorry to be discouraging. Let me know what you find.
