<pre>I am using compiz-0.8. With DRI3 enabled in xorg.conf and AccelMethod EXA, the
output becomes scrambled when switching monitors.
This does not happen with DRI3 off and AccelMethod EXA,
and does not happen with DRI3 on and AccelMethod glamour.
There seems no proper way to restore functionality except killing compiz
(leaving a black screen) and starting another window manager, like xfwm4. After
that, launching compiz again is not possible, I have to restart the X server.
Using xf86-video-ati git master (391900a670addec39515f924265bfa9f8bfa9ec0).
