This video I made demonstrates the problem.

Sometimes only one of them is blinking as in the video, sometimes they are all blinking, sometimes they're higher on the screen. 50% of the time after a reboot they're not there.
When they are present, I'm unable to access virtual terminals. Pressing Ctrl-Alt-F* causes a very brief flash of the screen and leaves me on the desktop.
This problem is present on fglrx from the repos or when installed from AMD's website.
I have two AMD 6950's installed, the problem persists whether I have the cards connected for Crossfire or not.
This problem is kind of hard to Google for...
What's going on here and how do I fix it?
