Public bug reported:
Upon installing 2.6.35-25-generic from maverick-proposed, a serious
regression causes display corruption to the point of making my system
completely unusable.
I have a Samsung SyncMaster 305T 2560x1600 monitor (requires dual-link
DVI) with a Radeon 4670 graphics card. There were some serious kernel
mode setting bugs in the past related to dual-link displays, not sure if
those bugs might be rearing their ugly head again.
Although my hardware setup isn't very common (monitor), this proposed
kernel should *not* be released into updates/security till this bug is
fixed. This is a ruin-your-day regression.
