I've seen this problem too many times, but haven't tried to track
it down. The video is ATI Rage 128 Pro.

A common bit seems to be ATI cards, judging from this thread. I'm
also using the aty128fb framebuffer driver. My motherboard is Aladdin V
based and so uses the ali-agp module.

I wonder if all of us who are seeing this problem have any of
these other things in common? =20
