@Mark, since you're using a completely different video card than Markus,
I would suspect your issue is unrelated; please report it as a new bug:
ubuntu-bug -p xserver-xorg-video-sis.
@Markus, since you're not able to reproduce it, I'm going to go ahead
and close this bug, but if you run across it
@Bryce: I think the problem indeed occured last after an upgrade. So far
it hasn't happened again and I haven't been able to reproduce it on
purpose. Not quite sure, but i think it also happened once when
switching between 8.04.1 and Intrepid (dual-boot), after I tried to
install fglrx on 8.04.
FYI, I've got SiS onboard graphics ( VGA compatible controller [0300]:
Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 661/741/760 PCI/AGP or 662/761Gx PCIE
VGA Display Adapter [1039:6330] Subsystem: Acer Incorporated [ALI]
Device [1025:0083]), and I noticed that the issue is not present if I

reboot, and even if I boot with kernel 2.6.24-19. Have previously added
some details to bug 272933, will reattach here if required.

[intrepid] Low
Also, I've noticed that it doesn't exactly seem to be low colour
resolution necessarily, although at first glance it's a similar effect -
many colours display correctly, and I have noticed that on some
occasions when restoring from standby the effect is reduced (although
still problematic).

p.s. in case you think I'm schizophrenic, Markus Pfeiffer != Mark Piper,

[intrepid] Low color resolution on Mobility Radeon X1600 and Desktop Effects
I've noticed it's not uncommon for the first boot after upgrade to
exhibit some odd behaviors that never appear again after that. It
