[Bug 820918] [NEW] The screen gets garbled after a few hours of use

 

Public bug reported:

Hi,

I have noticed this problem on my desktop (hoping details were picked by
apport) on Ubuntu 10.10 also and was expecting it to be fixed on 11.04
but I still see the issue. It gets really annoying as I can't do much
with the screen in this state - A Ctrl-A and Esc usually clears up some
of the mess.

I don't see this issue on any other machine so I am sure it is a problem
specific to the hardware. I am attaching the screen capture along with.
Kindly let know if any other details are needed and apport didn't pick
up.
