No idea at this point. It doesn't happen on the albooks I could test
with here... Can you send me a snapshot of a corrupted screen ? Does
it still happen if you disable dynamic clocks ?
(radeonfb.default_dynclk=-1 on the kernel cmdline and Option
"DynamicClocks" "false" in X if you are using X.org). And if you disable
accel in X ? (Option "NoAccel" "true")

Ben.
