Thanks Andreas,

Can you check if compiz is running with that? From the screenshots it sort of looks like a compositing issue, although I'm not certain.

Also, would you mind re-testing this against Jaunty? There's been significant improvements in support for r400/r500 class chips, particularly in 3d/compiz functionality, so it would be useful to know if this issue still exists in the development version before forwarding upstream.

ISO images are available at http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/releases/jaunty/. After booting a livecd, make sure to do a full update and logout/login, to be sure you're on the 6.11.0 -ati driver, since upstream will want to know if the problem still occurs on that.
