Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati
Picture says a thousand words: http://www.standarddoubt.com/storage/wrongcolors.png Upon a fresh install from the LiveCD graphics work perfectly, but after updating all packages and rebooting once I get this color corruption everywhere, even the login screen for kdm. Tried installing fglrx via jockey-kde, but rebooting again after that caused the same color corruption in kdm, and drew a wrongly-colored static image of my desktop image to screen and nothing else if I tried to login. (This even happened when I tried to login to root console.) Reinstalling from LiveCD allowed me to start KDE but reintroduced the original problem. x.org.0.log do not seem to show anything obviously unusual; even the color depth is correct. I have no /etc/X11/xorg.conf (sudo ls -a /etc/X11/xorg.conf returns "No such file or directory"). My primary boot partition is on an external USB hard drive (which is plugged in, mounted to /dev/sdb and booting fine), if that is somehow relevant. Am very puzzled, please help.
