Looks like a video driver issues to me. Nowadays the important bits of
the video drivers are really in the kernel and mesa, but it's usually
best to start by filing your bug against xorg-x11-drv-video-* - in your
case, xorg-x11-drv-video-ati - because that will get it to the attention
of the person who's likely to know where to address the problem.
