I'm pretty certain it was dropped support . When X kicked up, all I got
was corrupted graphics. It was working okay in the background since one
of the you could see movement when the mouse moved.

Changing the X device in xorg.conf from fglrx to radeon, uninstalling
the fglrx drivers and installing the radeon ones, fixed the problem.

There's quite a few messages floating around the net re ATI dropping
support for their earlier cards.

Cheers,
Al.
