I'm also affected by the bug described by laysan_a at #26: all objects
on the desktop (widgets, icons etc.) are tearing heavily. I'm on Lucid.
Had same issue on Karmic. There is no Compiz or compositing activated.
It's a Radeon HD 3200 (780 chipset onboard video). I regularly try the
newer Catalyst releases as well as what Ubuntu pushes through "hardware
drivers" but so far no luck.

Interestingly enough, in fullscreen OpenGL applications there's no
tearing, only on the desktop. And the tearing also stops while glxgears
is running on the screen.
