Hello.
Updating the drivers from xorg-edgers launchpad repository seems to fix my problem.
At the moment I did not get back graphics corruptions in KDE/qt apps.
I updated this packages:

xserver-xorg-video-ati
xserver-xorg-video-radeon
xserver-xorg-core
libgl1-mesa-dri
libgl1-mesa-glx
libdrm-radeon1
libdrm2

The launchpad xorg-edgers:

https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa

Important parts of my xorg.conf are:

Section "Module"
	Load  "glx"
	Load  "dri"
EndSection

Section "Device"
	Identifier	"Configured Video Device"
	Driver "radeon"
	Option   "AccelMethod"  "EXA"
	Option "DRI" "on"
EndSection

Section "DRI"
	Mode         0666
EndSection


I suggest that If you have fix the problem by updating the packages, keep the drivers installed but disable xorg-edgers repositories.
Otherwise, having a worse performance, remove the xorg-edgers repositories from sources.list, uninstall the packages that have been updated, do a "apt-get update" and re-install them.

To date, the version of drivers that I mentioned are
“6.12.99+git20090729”

Bye.
