Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati

I have a Sapphire X550 Radeon. I installed Lucid Beta 1.

The left monitor is 1680x1050. The right monitor is 1280x1024.

The rightmost portion of the right monitor is unusable - in the picture below it's the black and white stripe. Only the mouse cursor shows up on it.

The middle portion between the (default) wallpaper and the aforementioned stripe shows a trail of whatever I drag through it.

If I move the monitors from side to side instead to top and bottom I get a smaller unusable area at the bottom of the second screen.
