apport information ** Description changed:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati [see attached photo] I see extensive screen tearing and constant waviness. The amount of tearing increases with increased video action (i.e. running glxgears, editing a photo in GIMP). - I've tried the following: - Compix off - Kernel nomodeset - xorg edgers ppa drivers - AGPmode = -1 in Xorg.conf - - Nothing can get rid of it. - - Sometimes I boot and there is no problem at first, but after a few - minutes the screen is unreadable. Screen captures and remote logins via - VNC don't show any problems. ~/.xession-errors and Xorg.log don't show - anything interesting (see attached). - - In Karmic and Lucid up to a few weeks ago was fine. I can try older - kernels and see if I can isolate when it started. I've tried what I know - about x debugging, if you need anything else let me know. + The screen tearing intensity increases and decreases during use. I've + found that it only occurs when KMS is turned on. When nomodeset is a + boot option, there is no tearing and waviness.
