Screenshot using opoen source ati driver + libtxc (S3 Texture Compression)

I cannot test anymore with the offical driver from AMD/ATI, because they are
not releasing new driver versions for my old graphics card (radeon x850) and
their old driver doesnt support newer linux distributions.

So i am forced to the open source radeon driver and i found out, how to avoid
the big graphical problems. The problems went away after installing the package
libtxc-dxtn0. For Ubuntu users this can be done with the following commands:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libtxc-dxtn0
sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa

The developers of the driver cannot include this package by default because of
patents. More information can be found here:
