[Bug 507148] Re: [lucid] desktop runs out of video memory on ATI Radeon Mobility 7500

[Seth]

OK about half of the time when I boot up I get a corrupted login screen
it's black except for some staic looking black and white stuff at the
bottom quarter of my screen.

mine is a Thinkpad T43 with ATI X300 video card.

If at the corrupted screen I goto another terminal I get a lot of these
errors

------------------------------------------------------

Killing Xorg does nothing. but if I reboot (sometimes reboot 3 or 4
times) it will go away and boot and run fine.

what can I do to help?
