But after thinking, I did experience this(choppy screen)when using kexec, i.g. starting a new kernel from a terminal inside the xserver did create a messed up screen. Then(ctl+alt+del)disabling the xserver, made things work the way they were supposed too.
I am running radeon on a macbook pro. If I can remember at the time I was using kexec I did have radeon.(I'll try and reproduce this though). In any case I think this is an xserver issue not a kernel(but thats just a guess). I added a cc (hopefully it's the right one);
