Fwiw, I get a lot of screen corruption with Karmic and now Lucid, but it
looks different to all the screenshots in prior comments.  I notice it
mostly when using Gnome Terminal - usually a block of characters is
drawn blank (as if spaces), but occasionally (~25% of the time) will
contain a corrupt spattering of pixels.  But that's probably because I
use the terminal more than anything else.  It does sometimes happen when
rendering in Firefox.

I'll try to get a screen shot next time.

My system is a laptop with Intel 945GM, and I have not enabled
compositing (Visual Effects == None).

I've had problems with the X Intel video drivers from all versions of
Ubuntu since about Hoary Hedgehog (maybe earlier), including a different
type of corruption in Jaunty (which I haven't seen since), but the
"block of pixels misdrawn" corruption seems to be only the last two
releases.
