Sorry for the delay, Brice, your request was caught up in a hardware
change. I now have xserver-xorg-video-ati/experimental 1:6.7.194-1
installed and it seems to be working fine.

Note that this problem was never reproducible at will so it is hard to
know when it goes away. I haven't seen it for a while, but if it
should show up again, I will let you know.
