"My guess is there is a bug in the video driver that shows when the 3d
section of the video card is used."

Yup, you are 100% correct there.

I've forgotten about this bug - until you commented & I got the
notification about it. I suffered from similar problem to you. But I
managed to resolve it by installing the xorg-edgers PPA :

https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers

You might wish to try the driver first : https://launchpad.net/~xorg-
edgers/+archive/drivers-only

(I went for the whole setup though - Acer laptop here with Intel i915
chip)

Another safer bet compared to the whole xorg-edgers is probably the
Ubuntu-X PPA : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates

Hope it helps someone else. Good luck.
