** Summary changed:

- [ati radeon rv280] Screen displays garbage, mouse cursor normal (regression)
+ [ati radeon rv280] Screen displays horizontal streaking, mouse cursor normal; 
worked okay with Feisty

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati
  
- Since the updates a few days ago on gutsy, my screen only shows garbage
- with only the mouse pointer shown normally. This is on a radeon 9250.
+ Since the updates a few days ago on gutsy, my screen shows horizontal tearing 
streaks with only the mouse pointer shown normally (see 
http://launchpadlibrarian.net/9255354/00001.jpg). This is on a radeon 9250.
+ Usplash is displayed normally, gdm and gnome are scrambled.
+ 
+ This problem was first seen on Gutsy with the upload of the
+ 1:6.6.193-1ubuntu1 ati driver, and worked fine on Feisty and Breezy.
+ Downgrading xserver-xorg-video-ati to feisty's 1:6.6.3-2ubuntu6 fixes
+ the problem for me, so the problem must be in the changes between that
+ version and 1:6.6.193-1ubuntu1.
+ 
+ [Workaround]
+ Disable 3D (including Desktop Effects) by adding this to your Modules section:
+ 
+ Section "Module"
+         ...
+         Disable "glx"
+         Disable "dri"
+ EndSection
+ 
+ If the above does not fix the issue for you, then you are not seeing
+ this particular bug, and should report it separately.
