Public bug reported:
Hello,
I suspect a endianness problem in this BigEndian Machine (Apple PowerBook G4
with ATI Radeon Mobility 9700). The same architecture (bigEndian) shows no this
specific issue on PowerMac G5 Quad with PCI-Express ATI Radeon HD4670 with VGA
BIOS (not powerpc flashed card).
The problem seems to be a screen changing resolution or similar having
Compiz activated. If I switch the screen resolution on this laptop, the
garbage on the screen is more visible than using NO COMPOSITE Marco Mate
Display Manager.
The problem is enhanced using a second monitor attached to a DVI
connector on this laptop.
Can be easly reproduced.
