["Christopher M. Penalver" <christopher.m.penalver@xxxxxxxxx>]

Lionel Dricot, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been
any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an
issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development
release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  [lucid][R500 X1400] intermitent screen corruption (pink world ) -
  regression from -20 to -21 kernel

Status in X.org XServer - ATI gfx chipset driver:
  Confirmed
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in “linux” source package in Lucid:
  Triaged
Status in “linux” package in Arch Linux:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati

  I upgraded to Lucid and finally use the ati driver.

  Every 5 seconds, my screen freezes and starts to become corrupted. It
  becomes lighter and a light pink/green glow comes from the bottom of
  the screen and starts to eat the screen until I move the mouse. When I
  move the mouse, it takes 2 seconds to go back to normal but moving the
  mouse does not prevent the corruption from appearing. (it's just
  needed to stop it once it started).

  There's also some light garbage everywhere on the screen and the
  screen looks striped.

  Interestingly enough, the green/pink glow also appeas in console in X
  is started.

  This is for sure a ATI bug as there's no problem when using the VESA
  driver.
