I'm forwarding this bug report from a ubuntu intrepid tester:
https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/272406

[Original Report]:
When I load up the latest live 64 bit ubuntu intrepid CD, I can't get
into the GUI. When Gnome tries to come up, I get odd
rainbow-like patterns around the edges of the screen fading into
the center (this might be intentional, but I've never seen it in
Hardy). Then a blank gray screen appears with intermittently
flashing horizontal thin black lines.

Hitting Shift-Alt-F1 takes me here to file this bug. I have an ASUS
F8 Sp (F8Sp) notebook with ATI Radeon HD 3650 graphics card.

Gnome works just fine on this laptop with the proprietary (fglrx)
driver in Hardy, but not this new, more Intrepid version.

Let me know if I can provide any other details.
