** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati
  
  I am running Ubuntu 9.10, amd64 architecture on a Compaq 6910p laptop
  with an ATI Mobility Radeon X2300 connected to two displays - the
  internal LCD and an extra LCD monitor (1920x1200), connected by VGA
  cable.
  
  The configuration typically works as expected, with no obvious problems.
  
  However, I see two intermittent problems:
  
  1) Mouse cursor corruption, replacing the cursor with either a
  recognizably mangled cursor or sometimes apparently random noise (for
  example, a vertical bar of random dots). This can start at any point
  while I am using the computer. Once it has started, it does not recover,
  but the desktop is otherwise usable.
  
  2) X freezes (typically preceded by the above mouse corruption). Roughly
  every few days, the desktop will freeze completely, forcing me to make a
  hard power off.
  
  I've submitted various data using ubuntu-bug, but am of course happy to
  answer further questions and post further details of my configuration!
  
  Cheers,
  
  Richard.
