Harald, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-video-ati REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding.

It is an ATI x800 (R420) graphic interface with two monitors one connected to the VGA and one connected to the DVI connector. I can not find any rules when the problem occurs. It started when first booting after the update. Changing back to the old /etc/X11/Xsession.d/98vboxadd-xclient file helped for soume obots but the problem reapeared again. Now the problem comes up about every second time.
