X & radeon & flash & youtube problem



Hi all,

I recently caved and installed flashplugin-nonfree on my squeeze system
(once the 64-bit player was re-released).

However, when I watch some (not all) youtube videos, the screens (2)
first go black, then (possibly triggered by switching to a text
console), get corrupted and start flashing. I see this kind of thing in
syslog:

.. so I think the flashing is probably when it resets the GPU.

The problem persists on all VCs, and what is on the screen is in the
wrong place - usually I have to reboot without being able to see what
I'm doing, since the command line is off the bottom of the screen.

This (because everybody loves cats) is an example video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KswnjMa-MQ

I have a:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV730XT [Radeon HD 4670]
with the open source radeon driver.

I'm running 64-bit on an:
model name	: AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 965 Processor

I've seen a few things with similar log messages from searching, but
none very recent, and none quite the same.

That card, by the way, is the reason I'm running squeeze; it didn't seem
to place nicely with lenny (worked ok when I tried lucid, but that's not
really my thing - and I didn't try flash).

Any ideas?

I feel I should file a bug somewhere, but I'm not sure where's
appropriate, especially when running proprietary software - though no
software should be able to screw up my system that badly.
