Exactly the same problem showing here, with an ati 9200SE card and a new clean install of Ubuntu 9.10. I have tried the fix of making a new /etc/modprobe.d/radeon-kms.conf, with the following content:-
##enable KMS Radeon options radeon modeset=1 and then running sudo update-initramfs -k `uname -r` -u, but this has a number of other problems of graphics tearing, and slow to respond. Turning off compiz works at stopping the overall problem as does running in 16 bit colour, but it is very annoying and I would like my old graphics ability of 9.04 back again. -- Cannot set wallpaper.
