Ubuntu 9.10 and catalyst: fix slow window deployment

In a freshly installed ubuntu happy ^ Users of the proprietary driver from ati (catalyst), with the effects turned on, the window takes a very long time to unfold. To fix, you need to put "X" with the nobackflill patch (background initialization is disabled). This is easy to do:

1. In /etc/apt/sources.list add:
   deb ppa.launchpad.net/launchpad-weyland/xserver-nobackfill/ubuntu karmic main
2. Run:
   sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 16E70E3E
sudo aptitude update
sudo aptitude upgrade
3. Reboot X server
