It seems that an application utilizing OpenGL makes this behaviour even worse. The corruptions start about 5 minutes after boot and create thin flickering about 1cm long horizontal lines followed by screen flickering (like an old analogous television with a bad signal; the picture drifts up and down). The latter screen flickering renders X and the console unusable. The corruptions do not show up in a screenshot. The problem persists with Mainline Kernel 2.6.34 and/or Xorg-Edgers PPA and/or amd64 Ubuntu version. Possible Fixes: 1. Disabling KMS with "radeon.modeset=0" fixes the display corruptions but... well disables KMS ;-) 2. I recently found out that running "avivotool regset 0x458 0x00000000" also fixes this issue with KMS ENABLED. But that shouldn't be run by any user having a x1400, right? If you need any further information or additional files, please let me know.
