Sentrist Starleaf, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-video-ati REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding.

My screen flickers when (but not always) animating a relatively large portion of the screen such as switching workspace, minimizing/unminimizing windows, showing the Activities menu in GNOME3, dimming the background in favor of a dialog (such as the authentication dialog), but *not* when scrolling a content of a window. This problem has been around since the installation (in the Ubiquity's slideshow).
