I see, I am grateful for your intention but I have nothing particular
in my settings, the only thing may be all my machines are dual-head
but xorg.conf is pretty standard and it worked with 4.7 

unfortunately all machines are with ATI here, so I can not try
another card either

this xrender/opengl in deed is not so important for me since we use only
konsole, email and browser, it was a comment of something else not
working anymore

thank you
