splashy - ati drivers - blinking black lines

When I use spalshy I get blinking black lines in my xorg enviroment. They become really annoying. I have an ati card, any advice would be great!

An example is here: http://img215.imageshack.us/img215/1053/linessw7.png

Thanks

This is a known problem. I still try to find out, what causes this issue. It seems, that this issue only happens, if splashy is started from initramfs.
I will have a deeper look at it this or the next week, since im ill...

I added a small hack to solve this issue. I hope it works also for you...

@dongiovanni

I have the same problem with balck lines in the upper corner of my screen. Your last hack to solve the problem didn`t work for me. Any further ideas?

I haven't had a chance to try the new version I've been tied up with school work, but if I do get time I'll surely let you know!

Foresight does not have this problem. My guess is that splashy is still activated when you are in X. Cimi, see if there is a process you can kill.
