This bug prevented me from using Ubuntu. My graphics card is a GEForce 6200, which is very old, and apparently some of the newer GUI gidgets don't work on it. This prevented me from using Ubuntu on my computer. I am using Debian with the KDE shell, which I keep up-to-date. Debian KDI runs fine. I haven't tried Ubuntu since then.

During this process, the graphics card apparently tries to re-synch several times. After Dash exits or is terminated with <Ctrl>F4, everything is OK again. Graphcis card is ASUS EN6200TC256/TD/64M GeForce 6200 TC 256MB(64MB on Board) 64-bit DDR PCII Express x16, a re-branded NVIDIA GeForce 6200. I use the D-Sub output through a Linksys KVM switch to a NEC MultiSync 90GX2 display.
