Bug Description
When using only the sideport memory with a ATI HD 3300 there are small corruptions in the graphics around window borders. Windows that have moving content (scrolling lines in terminal or videos) give more corruption. It looks just like horizontal lines of pixels offset. When sideport+uma is enabled there are no corruptions.
