fglrx drivers with radeon HD 4250 cause graphical enviroment fault

[Francesco Miglietta]

by default my eeepc 1015t with Ubuntu 11.04 beta 1 comes with gallium 3d open source drivers that cause high battery consumption and annoying fan noise

installing fglrx proprietary drivers solves the problems..but causes graphical enviroment faults (i can't see bar, unity bar, part of the background image), I could just guess buttons' positions and uninstall the proprietary driver

when i restarted the netbook with the open source drivers all went obviously well..and i was able to report the bug

i think it can be a fglrx or a compiz-related bug
