Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati

I'm using Ubuntu Dapper 6.06.2 LTS with latest updates.
I have a Radeon 7000 on a Pentium 4 2.8Ghz CPU. When I start up my X server, I 
get some corruption on screen, just in the left edge, about 20 pixel wide. I 
was trying to use it at 1440x900, 24 bit color. Also, screen gets some strange 
green color. I have not observed this corruption in a Debian Stable system, 
installed in the same hardware (we have many computers). It's not the hardware, 
since it works on Windows. I have also tried my screen in another computer, 
it's Ok. I has to have something to do with the driver, which has been fixed in 
Debian. I have to put some lower resolution, then everything works fine, but 
not at maximum screen resolution (1440x900). I don't change refresh rate, it's 
always at 55-60Hz.

I have the following monitor:
Hanns-G HW173A (TFT, 1440x900 maximum)

I have the following hardware (lspci):
