Not a solution, but my Gateway LT3103u was essentially useless after this bug was introduced. My cheap/easy solution for now is to just rename the radeon.ko kernel module to radeon.ko.orig. After I did that, the corruption disappeared (as did any hope of accelerated 3d graphics, but hey, it's a netbook man).
sudo mv /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon.ko.orig Then reboot (chances are, radeon.ko is loaded and it's a bear to unload) -- [rs690m] Graphics corruption with ati x1200 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/556782 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is the registrant for xserver-xorg-driver-ati. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
