Title:
  [RV515] Kubuntu: Corrupted mouse cursor after moving between screens

Status in xserver-xorg-video-ati package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  On two machines, I've experienced a corrupted cursor. The cursor image
  seems to be 'cut in slices' and put back in the wrong order. The
  corruption is not easy to reproduce. When it does happen, it seems to
  happen after moving of the cursor between the different monitors.

  Configuration of the two machines:
  - Both machines have a dual screen setup. 
  - Both machines are Dell desktops with an ATI graphics card. 
  - Machine 1 has a R500 graphics chip, machine 2 a R600 graphics chip.

  I've seen the corruption on Intrepid and Jaunty. The Intrepid
  installations were running KDE 4.2 from PPA. The Jaunty installation
  was at beta.

  The problem occurs with different drivers, both fglrx and xf86-video-
  ati have this problem.

  Restarting the X session doesn´t restore the cursor. Only a reboot
  seems effective. Changing the cursor theme in KDE's system settings
  also has no effect.

  I'm unable to make a screenshot of the mouse cursor. When I make a
  screenshot using the GIMP, and tell it to include the mouse cursor, it
  captures a correct mouse cursor. Attached is a photo of poor quality
  (blame my phone), it however shows the problem.
