xserver-xorg-video-ati  6.6.2-0ubuntu4  X.Org X server -- ATI display driver

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/16873

I guess that bug is the my problem: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=707 but it's status is RESOLVED and the I have the last version of all packages. :)
