This is still a problem on 11.10. Massive tearing, which makes the install process unreadable.
I haven't had a chance to try the workaround described in the original issue #28898 and http://javahacker.com/?p=280 because I have a different problem (I can't seem to get to ubuntu to boot. Instead I get a file not found). ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu) Status: Expired => New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/799986 Title: IBM A21p display is corrupted To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/799986/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
