[Bug 695135] [NEW] Screen renders useless / ATI Radeon 2100

 

Public bug reported:

I've upgraded to Ubuntu 10.10 recently, and I am experiencing problems
with my PC which runs an integrated ATI Radeon 2100 display adapter.
After a while (can be everything between some minutes to 1-2 hours) the
display suddenly becomes unreadable, showing white horizontal stripes
all over the screen.

I've tried to shutdown X with Ctrl-Shift-Return, but that didn't work.
I've also managed one time to get the screen blank, with just the cursor
showing (without the stripes) by pressing ESC, but when pressing any
other key, the stripes keep coming back.

The system is still running and responsive, e.g. music playing in the
background and I've managed to do shutdown.

The problem is specific to the 10.10 version, I have not experienced i
before with 10.04, or Windows which runs in a dual boot partition.

Display: Samsung 206BW, 1680x1050.
