[Problem]
anything that makes compositing come into play, makes for hard tearing/flicker effects, where 1/3 - 1/2 the screen jumps and wraps round to the other edge... this can also be seen when writing text into editboxes..

I tried Ubuntu 9.10 RC with the 2.6.31-14.48 kernel based on 2.6.31.1.

no,  I can't get high resolution from it, should I? What kernel should fix my problem? What version of graphic driver?

Regards

Marcel
