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

Patrik, 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 kernel 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-v3.11.1

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:
  [RS690] sporadically while scrolling in any application the screen in
  most parts would change to "static" noise.

Status in X.org XServer - ATI gfx chipset driver:
  Unknown
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xorg

  scrolling in evolution (reproducable until a few days ago, now not
  anymore) or in firefox or chrome some times most parts of the screen
  would suddenly switch to "repeating patterns of noise". when moving
  the mouse, a huge square of noise moves across the screen... I guess
  this is related to some part of the display system... but which I
  don't know.
