Recent DRI updates trigger a strange bug with my Radeon graphics card.
Horizontal lines flicker. These stripes/ lines start from the right edge of the
screen and have different lengths. All colors are visible. The amount of lines
depends on the speed of diplay changes. In games/ console scrolling, there is a
lot of them. If the pc is idle, I don't see any. Occurs also in tty1 on the
text console.
I appended a bad-quality video showing this issue. Sorry for the quality, but
screencast programs don't record the problem, only the picture as it should be.

With 3.15-rc1 it still works fine. In later Kernels, it is black without
output.
>From somewhere between 3.15-rc3 and 3.15-rc4 (when the black-screen-issue is
fixed), theses stripes are visible. They are still there in latest commit:
1ee1ceafb572f1a925809168267a7962a4289de8

Graphics card is onboard:
01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] RS880
[Radeon HD 4200] (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
Monitor is attached over DVI.

I haven't found any errors in syslog. Tell me if you need some more info.
