Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

Since the libdrm fix (619663?) was downloaded to my laptop yesterday, I
switched my monitor config from top/bottom to side-by-side.  It appears
that if I have the secondary display enabled, I now end up with
corrupted text in emacs, my primary editor.  I can reproduce the
corrupted text when I do a mouse selection (as shown in the pictures I
will attach).  I can also see corrupted text when I type, or when I
paste text into the buffer.  If I disable the second monitor, I can't
reproduce the problem.

I haven't seen the problem in other applications yet, so maybe this is
an emacs issue instead.
