Title:
  Invoking dash corrupts the display; graphics card has very apparent
  problems with synch

Status in Unity:
  Expired
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Invoking Dash initially totally corrupts the display, which then
  settles down, sometimes to a partially coherent Dash panel, sometimes
  to just a prompt with scattered pixels everywhere, sometimes nearly
  complete coherence.  During this process, the graphics card apparently
  tries to re-synch several times.  After Dash exits or is terminated
  with <Ctrl>F4, everything is OK again.

  Graphcis card is ASUS EN6200TC256/TD/64M GeForce 6200 TC 256MB(64MB on
  Board) 64-bit DDR PCII Express x16, a re-branded NVIDIA GeForce 6200.
  I use the D-Sub output through a Linksys KVM switch to a NEC MultiSync
  90GX2 display.
