Yes, I'm quite sure. This happens with xfce4, kde4 and just plain openbox. I've seen similar distortion (though not quite the same as what's in my screenshot) from the radeon driver even before testing this new version. I will, however, confirm these various corruptions with the radeon driver happen less with E17. I've also seen the same thing on OpenBSD. The distortion I've seen with the driver/Xorg from ports I've also seen on Slackware when disabling KMS, so I'm quite convinced this is a UMS-specific bug. Adam
