+*** Text gets garbled/corrupted with Xorg ATI driver
+
+Some versions of the Xorg ATI driver present display issues where text
+display gets corrupted. Because of the conservative way SXEmacs
+updates the screen it is more susceptible to these issues than other
+applications.
+
+Some users have reported the problem goes away when using proprietary
+drivers. CAVEAT EMPTOR: Proprietary drivers have also been reported
+to break other parts of the system, most notabable are bad
+interactions with graphic boot package Plymouth when it asks for
+password for encrypted volumes at boot.
