Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati

Using Ubuntu Lucid (Beta, I know)

Everything seems fine on the LVDS, but plugging in an external VGA
monitor yields (at best) a wavy image on the secondary monitor. Up until
recently, the xserver performance was at least stable, but when I tried
it tonight, X threw tons of errors. I checked the log and there were a
bunch of issues with modelines, but nothing that stood out to me (I'm
not to familiar with X's log).

Eventually, X crashed. it is completely unusable on any dual monitor
configuration. About two weeks ago, it was actually working perfectly (a
small but significant improvement over Karmic).

I have an MSI Wind, U210 with a Radeon x1250

Oh, and I tried the "ubuntu-bug" report but it was just after I upgraded
my packages to the xorg-edgers repository, to see if I could improve the
situation right now, so it failed.
