Summary: Triple buffering and page flipping keyboard trouble

Initial Comment:
I've tried the included examples ex3buf and exflip and
also another of the examples which uses page flipping
with 4.2.0 and 4.3 on an AMD64 system running Gentoo
Linux equipped with an old nvidia geforce 2mx card.
The driver includes DGA support.
Running the examples with super user privileges and
GFX_XDGA2 seems to be the only way for me to get triple
buffering.
Linked against allegro-4.2.0 this resulted in very high
keyboard response delay and xterm keyboard garbage.
Linked against allegro-4.3 from svn the delay is
considerable lower but still the examples don't quit
immediatly with page flipping or triple buffering and
terminal gets alot of newlines and some stuff is invisible.
