Description alex3269 2007-12-21 05:47:25 UTC 
Hi. I have an issue on my Debian Etch, though I don't know if it is a bug or a new feature that is consistent and implemented further on. So my video card is Radeon 7000 which is a bit old now. When I open an image in Gimp 2.4.x.x and move a mouse pointer over it with brush selected, I have a chain of green circles following the pointer. It happens, when I run X with open source ati video driver. It's OK with vesa, though. But vesa is not as nice as ati. I have issues with switching screen resolution with it.
Can you explain what I have, a bug or something else?
Alex.

This is a driver issue but until the driver is fixed you can use the workaround mentioned in the report this is closed as a duplicate of.
