Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati

Certain applications, such as notify-osd and gnome-do, always draw windows that are unusably garbled.

I have not experienced this behavior in any other application, only gnome-do and notify-osd, nor can I reproduce it on a computer with nvidia drivers (both machines are running karmic and are completely up-to-date).

The issue is not otherwise related to a quirk in my system config, as I can reproduce the bug on an alpha 5 livecd.
