I've gone back to the VESA driver, the ATI 8.24.8 one isn't working well
for me. I get the same underlined mouse effect, and dualhead is broken
(changes on one head cause corruption on the other head).

I'm not using the kernel DRI component, which may be related. Has anyone
had better results when using that? (Unfortunately the XV overlay appears
to require the kernel driver...)
