Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: emerald

I'm on Hardy Heron (8.04.2) 32 bit; emerald version is 0.7.2-0ubuntu2.
My computer is a Fujitsu Lifebook A6230, with an ATI Mobility Radeon HD
3470 graphics card.

Basically, when I resume from a suspend or hibernate, all of my window
borders are nothing but static. Most windows will go back to the normal
emerald theme I have set when they lose or gain focus, but non-
application windows (I'm not sure of the correct term; windows like the
right click menu, the compiz viewport switcher, and tooltips) remain
with the static. I can fix all of it by running "compiz --replace" in a
terminal, but about one out of ten times this completely locks up my
computer and I have to force a reboot.

Attached is a screenshot showing the problem on an Amarok window. The
static on the left is from a window on the right side of the screen, one
viewport to the left of the current one.
http://i42.tinypic.com/1054jkh.png shows how tooltips still have the
static, even after the other windows have been fixed.

I think it may have something to do with the shadows (if that helps),
because I have them disabled on the Gnome menu bars and the static never
happens with them. Also, it may help to add that the reason I use Hardy
Heron is that in any newer release of Ubuntu, after I install the ATI
drivers (fglrx), the entire screen becomes static halfway through the
boot process and the computer becomes unresponsive.
