I have a Dell C510 with ATI mobility M6 LY graphics 16 MB video ram. I have the same corruption problem. Setting to EXA resolves the corruption, but the system becomes so slow to refresh windows, that I went back to the stock XAA acceleration. I would prefer to see a fix in the radeon drivers.

I'm curious, my IBM ThinkPad has no Xorg.conf file in /etc/X11, and none of my systems running 9.04 or 7.04 have an Xorg.conf file either. I just finished upgrading an HP Desktop to 9.10 and it had no Xorg.conf file previous or after the upgrade. Should the 9.10 upgrade be creating an Xorg.conf

I can confirm that the workaround documented by techneeq resolved the issue on my Evo N410c. I created an xorg.conf file ("boardname" automatically identified as "Radeon Mobility M6 LY"), uncommended the "AccelMethod" option and defined its value to be "EXA". FYI if you are running Gnome, you will

I think i have a workaround. This is how i did it: Since there was no xorg.conf in /etc/X11/, i guess Xorg makes the condig up at runtime, i had to ,,make'' one first. For this i needed Xorg to shut down. So i opened a console by pressing ctrl+alt+f1, logged in and started a root shell with "sudo

I have the same problem. Kubuntu 9.10, fresh install on a IBM Thinkpad T40. It's probably related to the video card. My guess is that some weird and obscure feature is used for the sake of eyecandy. To solve the problem i tried to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf, only to find that there is no such file.
