Sorry for the delay. I will put this in the general xorg package then. The team will move it where they think its more appropriate for your situation.

I'd say, don't ask any longer for the video card ... this problem appears on my installed version of 11.04 (AMD255, Nvidia GTX460, GNOME2), as well as on the Live-CD on my moms Intel Core 2 Duo with an ATI card (Unity).

The only things, both system had in common was the 1920x1080 resolution, and the desktop-effects activated.
