Thanks for your help in investigating the problem. Somehow I'm still not sure where the problem lies. On WindowsXP the card works just perfectly and is recognized without any problems by ATI driver / ATI Cataylst. Yesterday I went back to my Ubuntu 9.10 installation and tried to install the proprietary ATI fglrx driver, but it was not possible.  Linux ATI catalyst doesn't recognize the card. As a result of removing the ati ragoen driver and not being able to install fglrx the artifacts disappeared on the screen. However it's painful slow and I assume Ubuntu is using some kind of generic driver which doesn't use the 9800SE hardware at all.
It almost impossible to watch a video on youtube or similar stuff which would makes use of the graphic card.

Do you have any other ideas what could be the problem? Is there anything
I could do to further investigate the problem?

Thanks, your help is really appreciated!
