Bug#568752: kdm: Garbage show on second screen of extended desktop



Hi!

even to me happened this issue. Actually on my laptop, on the first screen.
If you have an ATI graphic card, maybe you can try to fix it by
- login as root to a console
- aticonfig --set-pcs-str=DDX,ForceXAA,TRUE
- restart the X server
For me it worked. Actually it is a solution for black boxes issue on
iceweasel (http://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-help-here/hardware/445975-fglrx-10-6-black-boxes.html),
but it solved also the garbage issue.
I have debian testing with fglrx-10.7 and kdm 4.4.3 (kernel 2.6.32-5-amd64).

However on my other laptop, with an NVIDIA graphic card, it still
happens (i.e. garbage before and after the login by kdm), and I don't
know how to fix it. The other system is a debian unstable with kdm
4.4.5-3 and nvidia-glx-195.36.31-3 (kernel 2.6.35-trunk-amd64).
