           Summary: (mild) screen corruption on left rotated display (RS780)
           Product: xorg
           Version: 7.4
          Platform: x86-64 (AMD64)
        OS/Version: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW

        AssignedTo: xorg-driver-ati at lists.x.org

I've build a new AM3 workstation with the 790GX chipset recently.
The motherboard has a build Radeon HD 3300 (RS780) graphic card.
My monitor runs in portrait mode (xrandr --output DVI-0 --rotate left).

With this setup my display gets corrupted as follows:

- In xterm when I type commands in the shell there appears a thin vertical line
  after each character.
- When I start inkscape with a blank document on a virtual desktop and
  switch to another desktop and then back to inkscape, random black vertical
  lines appear on the screen. The pattern of the lines changes every time
  I switch back and forth again.
- When I switch to a running mc (midnight commander) in my (gnu-)screen
  session, random white vertical lines appear on the screen.  The pattern
  of the lines changes every time I switch back and forth again.

I've tried to capture the corruption with a screenshot, but the screenshots
are always uncorrupted.
