On my system (when it was installed - I got rid of it) every video
object, meaning every object on my screen, shortcuts, folders, plasma
widgets, everything, was torn horizontally across the screen, except
when the screen was updating, then it would momentarily clear.

I had the fglrx from the repository (8 something?) installed, and the
latest 9-5. Both exhibited this tearing.

Oh, and if I played a video the objects on the video screen tore as
well.

I do not have desktop effects on.

I have kubuntu 9.04 installed.

Nothing I changed in the ati configuration utility had any effect
whatsoever.

This is very unfortunate. I watch a lot of video on my machine, and the
xorg drivers just aren't good enough to render high quality streamed
media in full screen on my system. Fglrx worked perfectly well in
intrepid. It was a disappointment to find it broken in jaunty.
