    The ID I see in the logs is "ATI Technologies Inc 760G [Radeon
3000]", FWIW.  The "780" bit looks to be an audio controller
personality on the same silicon.

    Maybe the hardware is just a hair removed from working to spec?

    They revealed themselves as a problem with the out-of-the-box
xscsreensaver setup.  They will also cause issues run with -root
without any xscreensaver in the picture.  The root window they're
drawing into in each case is 1920x1080.  No compositing window
manager.


    Thanks for looking at this!
