I have the same problem, when running a full-screen game any pop-ups (like new mail notifications, etc) well cause chaos... So, I just make sure to close programs that cause pop-ups while playing my game :) I think it must be related to the KDE4 desktop effect, because it didn't happen before then. Hmm, pop-ups do cause chaos, but the problem the OP described (program on another desktop causing graphical glitches) does not occur here. AMD64 with an ATI Radeon 4870 here. KDE 4 effects are on.

More simple and more exciting :-) - just have started glxgears and switched a desktop - glxgears' canvas is visible on any desktop!!

It seems the driver does not support accelerated 3D while compositing (Desktop Effects) is enabled.
