Looks like my previous report was largely premature.  After looking
deeper into issue I've found that my initial "ati" driver install and
configuration somehow get screwed up along with some other components
like libgl1-mesa-glx and libgl1-mesa-dri.

All at a sudden I found "direct rendering" reset to NO and glxgears
showing extremely low frame rate.

After re-installing everything, then running dpkg-reconfigure xserver-
xorg I have things running way faster, and I get back my "direct
rendering".  glxgears shows frame rate about 8 (!) times faster then
before.

I do not know yet, if the "no signal" problem has gone.  I hope so very
much.  I'll watch it.

It seems that I misunderstood the "fix released" message as well.  I
thought I get it on my Hardy with one of the latest updates.  Then I
realized that it affected Karmic only.

Again, sorry, for the premature report.
