b3nmore, thank your your comment. When you were performing the apport-

If so, did you get the following message and click yes:
"Your display manager log files may help developers diagnose the bug, but may

Title:
  xfwm4 may show display distortions, when using compositing on intel
  with sna

Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Since sna acceleration of the intel display driver is enabled by default, I 
see two types of display distortions from time to time:
  i) windows have some times stippled borders,
  ii) xfce4-terminal shows distortions, when switching windows with alt+tab 
(view attachment).
  To reproduce it, open two terminals run some commands to fill them with text 
and switch between them via alt+tab a few times.

  I've found following workarounds to prevent this from happening:
  - switch to uxa via xorg.conf
  or
  - disable compositing in xfwm4
  - replace xfwm4 with another wm (tested with mutter, metacity)
