Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati

A recent (last month or two) driver update causes the M6 LY to behave
weirdly when suspending/resuming.

On resume, graphical errors pop up. Horizontal regions (I'd say 10-20
pixels long and 1 pixel high) begin to appear when regions are redrawn
(text in consoles scrolling/windows resizing). Additionally, regions
appear in some windows where (moving left to right and top to bottom)
the first 100 or so pixels are scrambled followed by a black region.
Resizing the windows makes the affected regions disappear, but they are
replaced by new glitches. It also seems like hardware mouse acceleration
is effected. The mouse moves with a .5sec refresh rate after restarting.

Eventually, the glitches get more and more common until the machine
locks hard (no ctrl+alt+backspace, caps lock key is unresponsive).

Xorg.log doesn't have any errors, so I'm at a loss to figure out where
to look. Looking at lspci -vv, it seems like there might be a problem
with the memory detection routines? There is only 16MB of video ram on
this machine, and 128MB is reported (region 0). If it was including AGP
memory, it would be in powers-of two and 116MB isn't.

Any suggestions? The attached log shows me booting, suspending/resuming
and switching to/from a VT. When I switched to the VT, nothing came up.
I tried upgrading my ati driver with a version from
https://launchpad.net/~tormodvolden/+archive , to no effect.
