            I guess they use the standalone library and not xorg-server 1.16, that's the problem.
            ## VGA ##
            AMD: X1950XTX, HD3870, HD5870
            Intel: GMA45, HD3000 (Core i5 2500K)

              What? Debian never used libglamor, this is pure xserver 1.16 rc3 .

                    About:config-> search for gfx
                    To see what's enabled go to about:about and click the appropriate about (I don't recall the name offhand but it should be obvious from the list).
