With Nouveau drivers it seems to work fine, but after some time, I get artefacts in programs, on the desktop and the unity bar. It gets unusable very fast. Restarting X solves the problem, but causes (obviously) a restart of all running apps. I have added x-edgers ppa instead of the regular source, but this brings only a very slight improvement (at least so it seems), Well, I have includes a screenshot of my messed up desktop. I have seen that this was a problem in the past as well (found some bug reports for plain vanilla debian).
