Claims a quick response. I looked back at my previous version... 9.2-RELEASE with the VESA driver, and it seemed much sharper at redrawing xterms (i.e. text) but of course way slower on the rendering. That's a subjective comment - it could be down to (I guess) scheduler changes I don't know about. Incidentally, I just noticed what may be an error message in X.org.0.log (already supplied to you) from which I snip this....
