I've just dist-upgraded and I get the blank screen with a box in the middle. I have jaunty-updates enabled and these versions

ii libgl1-mesa-dr 7.4-0ubuntu3 A free implementation of the OpenGL API -- D
ii libgl1-mesa-gl 7.4-0ubuntu3 A free implementation of the OpenGL API -- G
ii libglu1-mesa 7.4-0ubuntu3 The OpenGL utility library (GLU)
ii mesa-utils 7.4-0ubuntu3 Miscellaneous Mesa GL utilities

I've enabled Mario's ppa but get no updates as it seems to be in sync with jaunty-updates now.
Disabling dri makes it work but after video is played I get display corruption. Closing and restarting mythfrontend does not fix the corruption requiring X to be restarted.

This is on a thinkpad R40 with ati mobility radeon 7500.
Did anyone on similar hardware had this issue reappering?
