Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

I am testing Lucid alpha 3. Fully upgraded. Since I installed the Nvidia
proprietary drivers I observe a slight flickering when watching videos.
The flickering occurs at irregular intervals (from a few seconds to
several minutes) and only last one or two seconds. It is not very
disturbing, just a bit annoying. This happens regardless of the video
format or the video player used. This happens both when watching videos
online (all websites) as well as videos stored on the hard drive. The
problem was not present with previous versions of Ubuntu.

Apart from that, the Lucid alpha is running well.
