Okay, now to some questions...  Stefano can you please try the
following:

1.  It looks like you're running compiz.  Try turning off compiz (from
login screen select Classic Desktop - no effects).  If the corruption
goes away after that, then I'm guessing a mesa/compiz 3d rendering bug.
If it's still present then it's more X-y.

2.  In the duped bug you mention you saw this since the introduction of
the new stack.  Do you recall more precisely when you started noticing
it?  We upgraded mesa, the kernel, and xserver all within a period of a
couple weeks, and any one of those could cause a bug like this.  If you
know when exactly it started then that gives a strong clue what to look
at first.

3.  Do you have the 2.6.37 kernel still installed?  If so, try booting
that and reproducing the issue.  If it can't be reproduced, then we know
it's a kernel bug (probably drm), and if it can then we can at least get
the kernel ruled out.
