Hmmm, xserver-xorg-video-ati Version: 1:6.8.0-1 So the option above should do nothing. Indeed, looking at the Xorg log, ---------------------------------------------------------------------- (II) RADEON(0): RandR 1.2 enabled, ignore the following RandR disabled message. (WW) RADEON(0): Option "UseFBDev" is not used (--) RandR disabled ---------------------------------------------------------------------- After removing the option I have tried unsuccessfully to reproduce the problem (Note that it previously appeared here randomly, not in a sistematically reproducible way). So, I have to admit that I have no idea about what helped (or even if the problem will eventually come back), just noticed that I could not reproduce it with the newly arrived to testing xserver-xorg-video-ati, and that line was the only difference once xorg.conf is regenerated.
