[Bug 440544] Re: screen corruption with Radeon 4770

 

Phil, thank you for pointing me to the xorg.conf. (your help worked out
great :)

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  There is reproducable corruption of the screen when using a Sapphire
- Radeon 4770 card with the open source radeon drivers.
+ Radeon 4770 card with the open source radeon and fglrx drivers.
  
  It takes the form of a "chequered" effect, looking a bit like a chequer
  / checkerboard.
  
  In Gnome, this is most noticeable when the screen goes greyed (eg when
  typing gksudo ..) but can also be seen at other times eg in the previews
  shown in System Preferences->Appearance->Theme. The menus in KeePassX
  are corrupted.
  
  In KDE, this is much more noticeable right away in the the menu and the
  ublog on the desktop.
  
  When using the fglrx driver the effect does not show when the screen is
  greyed, though the theme previews do still show the same corruption.
  
-  An attachment shows a screenshot of the grey screen effect.
