I'm not sure I agree with this being a duplicate of bug bug #987949. I
encountered this bug on a laptop with _just_ Intel HD3000. The only
visual issue I noticed was the slideshow while transitioning, and I did
not have the problem when I used "Try Ubuntu" from the live CD. Only
when I used "Install Ubuntu." Could a lack of desktop compositing be
causing this?

I don't remember this happening before 12.04 so I still feel like it's
an issue better fixed at its source (wherever that is), but perhaps (if
I'm right) we can disable animations when compositing is off.

Title:
  Ubuntu Installer Slideshow - Severe tearing when changing slides

Status in “ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “webkit” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I just installed Ubuntu 12.04 from a daily built.

  Aside from the installation being slower than usual, whenever I
  changed Slide on the Slideshow, severe tearing occured during
  transitions.

  Actually you could see randomly distributed and randomly sized grey
  rectangles moving along with the transitions.

  It is the first time I fully install Ubuntu 12.04, but I have never
  experienced the same issue with previous Ubuntu versions, as far as
  the slideshow goes. So, AFAIK it is a regression for my system

  Note: It might be the graphics drivers for my system to blame, I see
  noticable tearing whenever I move windows around, and smooth scrolling
  is noticably worse than it used to in Ubuntu 11.10.
