Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati

I use two monitor connected via DVI. After suspend to ram and resume,
the picture on only one display gets scrambled and unusable.

Some Facts:
- Everthing runs as expected, but the left display show a picture looking like 
every fourth pixel is displayed, and the ones in between have the values of 
their neighbor. The picture is updated and flickerfree. I can attach a foto if 
it helps..

- Taking a screenshot gives a normal picture.

- Disabling KMS by passing radeon.modeset=0 to the kernel solves the
problem. I attach 2 dmesg outputs of the resume sequence. Note that with
modeset=0 "[drm] Resetting GPU" is output, while with KMS it is not.

- It occurs only if using the 2 monitors in "big desktop" mode.

- logging out an back in solves it

- fglrx (i used it until lucid) had the same issue. It was silently
fixed around version 10.2.

- Hibernation doesn't work too. It ends up in gdm after resuming. Maybe
X crashes, but thats another story.
