Bug Description

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati

PC with ubuntu 8,04 installed freezes with screen resolution 1792x1344 using compiz 3-4 times a day, and almost instantly (after 3-5 seconds) when running screensaver solarwinds, it frizes only with one type of solarwinds - see attachment (Im not sure is it type of solarwind because I tooked that screenshot on 1600x1200 resolution because I cant take scrsht on 1792x1344 resolution because it freezes instantly).
With resolution 1600x1200 there is no problems.

Attachment is reduced to 20% of size.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. In the development cycle for Intrepid there have been some vast improvements in the open source ati video driver and we could use your help testing them. Could you please download the latest Alpha CD image of Intrepid and test this particular bug just using the Live CD? You can find the latest image at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing . Your testing can help make Ubuntu and the open source ati driver even better! Thanks in advance.
