Release Notes for Mac OS X
Fixed green pixelation corruption issue after sleep on 23" Apple Cinema HD (DVI)

Corruption may occur on a select few X800 XT cards with LCD panels after the system wakes from sleep. The problem primarily affects flat panel displays connected to the card's DVI port. The bug was predominantly reported on the 23" Apple Cinema HD but has also occured on other displays. The update should be (re)applied after other driver and OS updates. Future versions of ATI Driver updates and ATI Displays will include this hotfix.
