Bug Description
Binary package hint: xserver-
Using
xserver-
on Sony with ATI Mobility M1
I observe a line of garbled pixels under the mouse cursor, for example on the initial login screen, and then they stay there no matter what is redrawn, like that they are "burned in". Moving mouse cursor keep these pixels on the initial location, and doesn't produce new, until something happens, when the "burned in" pixels appear somewhere else, but again under the current place of the cursor.
The effect never happens in Vesa mode. Here's conf, I don't know what else I should try:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Generic Video Card"
Boardname "ATI Rage Mobility"
Busid "PCI:1:0:0"
Driver "ati"
Screen 0
Vendorname "ATI"
Option "MergedFB" "off"
EndSection
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

There is some logic in behaviour -- I've already mentioned that pixels appear at first at the initial display of screen and the mouse. Then, going to "Screen and Graphics Preferences / Graphics card" and performing Test will make the pixels dissapear. Probably the sequence of initializing the screen and the mouse is not the same as on initial activation? Then they will appear only at some later event that seems to duplicate some events in the same way as the start of the graphics mode.
