I am also seeing this (on Karmic).  Sometimes "still readable" is a
stretch.

It goes away if antialiasing is disabled.  Bitmap fonts are unaffected.

GTK and QT widgets are affected, as is the web content in a firefox
window. The web content in chromium nightlies from
http://ppa.launchpad.net/chromium-daily/ppa/ubuntu is not, despite being
antialiased.

Setting the AccelMethod for the ati driver to "XAA" seems to have made
the problem go away.

My card is Radeon RV100 QY [Radeon 7000/VE] which seems to be the same
as the original reporter's.
