[Bug 1444268] [NEW] [Lenovo ThinkPad T400] Screen corruption

 

Public bug reported:

I often perceive massive screen corruption, most prominently in Firefox
/ GMail, but it may happen with any application, including terminals.
Sometimes oversized letters appear. I run video stress tests, but they
run without errors. I suspect the problem presents when many text needs
to be rendered on-screen, as odd as it sounds.

I will attach screenshots.
