** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati
  
  When booting from the install CD, a black screen with artefacts is shown after the startup progress bar (when Gnome or GDM should be displayed). The mouse cursor is movable but garbled.
  Switching to terminal with Ctrl + Alt + F1 is not possible.
  
  Starting with the vesa driver (Save graphics mode on install CD) works
  find.
  
  I installed with save graphics mode but when I revert to the Radeon
  driver (by deleting /etc/X11/xorg.conf) the same problem arises.
  
  I have a Sapphire Radeon X1900 GT graphics card (with a R580 chip).
  
  The problem was also in Ubuntu 8.10 and 9.04.
