Hi All,

There is a problem with the new Xorg 1.17.

Please read the following bug reports:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/1434036
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=89862

FYI:

http://forum.hyperion-entertainment.biz/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=2840

The temporary solution is to downgrade Xorg:

sudo dpkg -i xserver-xorg-core_1.16.0-1ubuntu1.3_powerpc.deb
sudo dpkg -i xserver-xorg-video-radeon_7.4.0-2ubuntu2_powerpc.deb
sudo dpkg -i xserver-xorg-video-ati_7.4.0-2ubuntu2_powerpc.deb

I created a package with all debs and Mesa libs for the downgrade, amonth ago.

Rgds,
