[Bug 1055391] Re: Broken picture on Desktop and broken view of application windows

 

gumanoed, as per
https://downloadcenter.intel.com/SearchResult.aspx?lang=eng&ProductFamily=Desktop+Boards&ProductLine=Intel%C2%AE+4+Series+Chipset+Boards&ProductProduct=Intel%C2%AE+Desktop+Board+DP43TF
an update is available for your BIOS (0107). If you update to this, does
it change anything?

If not, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  Broken picture on Desktop and broken view of application windows

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  If I run Ubuntu 12.10 desktop (in liveCD mode) as is - I do not see a
  beautiful picture on my desktop, but some trash of previous boot of
  other OS.

  We tried to find workaround and investigated that if I push "ESC"
  button while boot splashscreen (turn off boot splash animation) - then
  in Unity all works fine.

  I have:
