** Description changed:

  Ok I'm a Linux noob so I know I'm probably doing this all wrong but....
  
  I decided to go for the 64-bit Jaunty install because I'm on a fairly
  fickle laptop and if the devs can get an OS to work on here, it will
  work for everyone else :D  It's updated as of today (12/9)  Jaunty was
  an update to Intrepid, not a fresh install.
  
  Anyways, now I'm noticing random artifacting (black bars, inverted
  colors) for certain parts of the screen.  This is especially prevalent
  in firefox 3.0.4 when I switch between the terminal and ff.  At first I
  thought that it was a bug with firefox but then I started seeing black
  bars in the text editor while reading the license.  When I scroll past
  and go back the artifact, it disappears.  Sometimes the artifacting in
  ff will happen on the status toolbar on the bottom.  I'll do any trouble
  shooting/logging requested.  The ff profile is 99% fresh...the only
  thing i've added is 64 bit flash.  But I haven't done anything to the
  text editor.
  
  UPDATE:  It just happened again when I was closing the terminal via
  right click.  Then it also happened where half of ff got inverted.  I
  tried taking a print screen using the key shortcut, but the artifact
  disappeared with the key press.  It might possibly a problem with compiz
  as it only happens when I'm doing something like looking at window list
  preview or switching tabs or scrolling.
