The only fix is to get rid of the ATI video card.  I've had this problem 
in the past with their stuff and just ended up beating my head against a 
wall.  It's not worth it .. trust me.  The fglrx driver has been crap for 
over two years and the open sourced versions are slow leaving me to give 
up and just buy something else.
