Bug#251769: xserver-xfree86: [ati/radeon] dark horizontal bars with fglrx module
Package: xserver-xfree86
Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-2
Severity: important
Tags: sid
Hello !
I just installed the fglrx module in order to use an ATI Radeon 9200Se
video card. The problem is that horizontal bars appears on the whole
screen. They aren't so visible, but make the fonts become less readable
( on a LCD Screen ).
However, fonts can be easily read when the text is between two
horizontal bars.
