| Can somebody please give a timeframe for the following:
| 
| 1) when will X.org 7.2 (in which this X.org bug is fixed) reach Edgy?

Given that Xorg 7.2 isn't scheduled until October/November, it
probably won't.  We might be able to backport the fix, though.

| 2) will a patch be rolled out to existing Dapper users via APT or will
| we have to tell people to upgrade to Edgy to use their dualheads again?
| if so, when?

Dualheads work fine, just not this particular configuration.  If it's
a small and well-contained fix, we should be able to backport it to
dapper-updates.  I am not sure of the time-frame as we are all
insanely busy with Edgy at the moment and trying to get Ubuntu's and
Debian's X packages in sync.  Once that happens, we might be able to
isolate the fix and apply it in Dapper.
