I no longer own this laptop so I can't confirm if the issue still exists or not.

I tried installing the drivers via synaptic and even after they were installed the problem still persist. (Removed the old drivers too and left the Radeon ones) I have had this issue since Ubuntu 10.04. I never had any problems with Ubuntu until the day I upgraded. I know it isn't my hardware because I have no issues with Windows. I found a temporary solution. Whenever my video starts flickering or jumping if I suspend the laptop and then bring it back to life the screen straightens out.
