Now, the bad news. I have just installed the XF86_Mach64 server on
my Dell Inspiron 3700 (which carries an ATI Rage Mobility M1), and
there are not any improvements over the patched 3.3.5 server. In fact,
the 3.3.6 server runs worse, because APM suspend does not seem to work.

At 24 and 32bpp (1024x768), both the patched 3.3.5 Mach64 server and
the 3.3.6 one are unusable: two vertical noisy thin lines appear crossing
the screen. Does this also happen with ATI Rage Mobility-P laptops,
such as the Inspiron 7500?
