Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati

As of an update yesterday afternoon, the 2 screens attached to the DVI
ports on my 2nd video card are distorted.  The desktop wallpaper shows
up alright, but if I open / drag any windows on those screens, the
contents of the windows turn blank (or don't show) and the chrome gets
completely distorted (or doesn't show as well).  The only application
that shows the window contents is netbeans.

My configuration has been working fine for my 2-card / 3-monitor setup
for months.

I've attached a screenshot showing what I'm describing and here's my
xorg.conf (As you can see, my card and monitor model information is
listed within):
