While most things run pretty well I sometimes see some screen corruptions (~200px from the left are copied to the right). The corruption happens when I start an xterm for the first time or when I maximize an xterm and run a program like top (see corruption 1), or when I hit the logout button in KDE (see corruption2). My setup looks like the following: Thinkpad T60 (ATI X1400 GPU) with an internal LCD (1400x1050 resolution, _disabled_) + an external DVI-connected LG W2220P display (1680x1050 resolution, _enabled_, primary). Maybe it's just coincidence, but it looks like the corruption starts at a x_pos of about 1400 pixel (the x resolution of the internal but disabled LCD). The old 6.13.2 driver doesn't show this problem. Using the "ColorTiling false" option fixes the problem for me, but I'm not sure if it should be used or not. I already tried the xorg-patch mentioned in bug fdo#33929 but it doesn't help. The rest of my setup: kernel 2.6.28, openSUSE 11.4, x11-server 1.9.3

Could be bug 33929. Does Option "ColorTiling" "off" work around the problem?

I tested Kubuntu 11.04 Beta2 yesterday. Same problem there. Any other ideas?
Is this still an issue with a newer driver/kernel?
