Here is a .deb of the patch posted for upstream bug 12490:
http://people.ubuntu.com/~bryce/Testing/ati-bug86072/
Note that while this fixed the immediate problem of x not starting up,
the bug reporters were experiencing a number of additional problems,
such as a freeze up when switching to ttys, and missing some higher
resolutions. I don't know if these will affect us, but if they do,
fixes are pending for them.
** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu)
Assignee: (unassigned) => Bryce Harrington (bryceharrington)
Status: Confirmed => In Progress
