Well, I have to add something here.

Shortly after the corruption appeared (around an hour or so) the cursor changed into a square as I moved the cursor from one screen to the other. Additionally the cursor moved with a delay and not smooth at all. After that the keyboard was inaccessible and logging in via SSH remotely (which took quite some time) I saw that Xorg was using almost all CPU (dual-core AMD X2) and what I was curious about was that even 'top' was using very much CPU (~20-60%).

The system didn't come down correctly after issuing a 'shutdown now' so I had to hard-reset the system.

Although the mouse pointer was movable (hardware cursor) the system didn't respond to anything.

My current setup:

                  xorg: 7.4~5ubuntu18
          xserver-xorg: 7.4~5ubuntu18
     xserver-xorg-core: 1.6.3+git20090801+server-1.6-branch.f274e595-0ubuntu0sarvatt~jaunty
xserver-xorg-video-ati: 6.12.99+git20090729.2b9a5be3-0ubuntu0sarvatt~jaunty
