F12 video corruption, horizontal wavy-ness.

I've just installed F12 and during boot and at the desktop, the screen has an issue. I have a 9700 pro and the resolution gets detected properly (1440x900), but it's like the frequency is slightly off. I see the screen fine, but the screen looks almost as if it's underwater. My monitor accepts two freq at 1440x900, and the issue is at the 60Hz setting. If I change it to 75Hz, the screen is fine, but the corruption is still there during boot and at the login screen. Ubuntu 8.04, 9.10 and Mint 8 all work just fine at 60Hz. This is using the default driver for my ATI card. The corruption was there in anaconda when I was installing F12, but figured it would not be there after the install. Any ideas? Can I somehow force 75Hz to the kernel mode set?

Edit: I'll try to get a video up on youtube soon as it can describe my problem perfectly without words.

How did you update F12 upon installing it ? Try
Code:
su -
yum update --enablerepo=u*g

I get this error:
Code:
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
opencv-1.1.0-0.8.pre1.fc12.i686 from updates-testing has depsolving problems
  --> Missing Dependency: libucil.so.2 is needed by package opencv-1.1.0-0.8.pre1.fc12.i686 (updates-testing)
Error: Missing Dependency: libucil.so.2 is needed by package opencv-1.1.0-0.8.pre1.fc12.i686 (updates-testing)
After installing, I added the RPMFusion repo to install extra packages. I basically followed the steps in the Perfect Fedora 12 Desktop guide.

It's like some other package is calling for libucil to be updated, but I'm not familiar enough with yum to know how to determine that. It does look like there is updated xorg and ati packages, so I'd like to try those out.
