Try xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.12.2-7.fc11 from Koji.
Some fixes for r690s went into xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.12.2-5.fc11 seem to have
caused problems. xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.12.2-6.fc11 was an attempted fix and
with xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.12.2-7.fc11 some stuff was reverted.

I have an rv530 and xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.12.2-7.fc11 is working acceptibly.
xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.12.2-4.fc11 also worked OK with this card.
