Launchpad bug report:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/780624
Video tearing has always been a problem with this VGA under 2D compositing
window managers since KMS is the default modesetting, because Overlay Mixer is
not available. Under Ubuntu 10.04 (xorg 7.5 and xserver-xorg-video-radeon
6.13.0) video tearing is minimal, but with every new driver it's getting worse.
Under Ubuntu 11.04 it's impossible to watch any video. I also tried the latest
radeon driver from git. 3D compositing window managers are not an option,
because the Xpress 200M is too slow.
