Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati

I'm the supplier of bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/551678
I've tried the hints by "Bryce Harrington  wrote on 2010-04-02: ", fully removed every -fglrx / nvidia relevant and reinstalled -ati from scratch. But problems keep the same:

Hardware: Acer Aspire E500 EB7S, video card ATI Radeon X700 SE (dual
head, left screen 1280x1024 via DVI, right screen 1024x768 via VGA)

After an dist-upgrade to lucid screen output gets weird and unreadable.
Keyboard and mouse are available and seem to work properly, the cursor
is painted correctly. After entering user id and password, I get logged
in, however, the gnome desktop is also weird and unreadable (xfce is the
same). It is possible to launch applications by clicking on the icon
location or by ALT+F2. However they are exhibiting the same problem.

With CTRL+ALT+F1 I get a workable text terminal login.

Please see the screenshot.
