Random image is rendered when I am doing normal work (like reading
documents, web surfing, etc) with gnome 3 running. I am using ubuntu
11.10 64bit version. When I run gnome 2 (ubuntu classic without effects)
no artifacts are there. When running gnome 2 (with compiz enabled) I am
getting similar effects. Guess this to be related to OpenGL Mesa
package. I am having a Intel 82945G/GZ graphics card. Mine is a fresh
installation of ubuntu 11.10. My system is up to date.

Output of certain commands that may be helpful:
lspci:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)

dmesg | grep drm:

Things are going fine when there is no compiz (or gnome3). I guess it is
because of OpenGL driver (mesa) as running gnome3 (mutter) also has the
same effect.
