[RADEON:KMS:DDX] scrambled display output using kuickshow (might be imlib issue)

Description
Installed X11R7.5 and upgraded or recompiled any necessary component libraries so that X11 and KDE compile without error. After recompiling and reinstalling KDE-3.5.8 and then using kuickshow (part of kde-3.5.8 package) to view a jpg, the display output is scrambled - horizontal lines, random display patterns, distorted images from display memory - it is different every time even when viewing the same image. xorg.conf has selected Driver "radeon" - the specific driver that came with the X11 package was xf86-video-ati-6.13.0 ( which provides radeon_drv.so ). The problem only shows up with kuickshow - all other graphic display software ( gimp, digikam ...) work ok. kuickshow would not display any graphic image ( jpg, png, icons ...) properly. I downgraded to xf86-video-ati-6.12.192 - same problem. Downgraded further to xf86-video-ati-6.12.7 and now kuickshow displays properly. So some change incorporated after 6.12.7 is the problem.
