Public bug reported: The problem started when I upgraded from Intrepid to Jaunty. My display gets distorted in both KDE and Gnome. I do not have to Supend or Hibernate first & then Resume to get the distortions. I suspect that the problem occurs after Java begins running because the problem often begins after I use web sites with complex code, e.g. gmail, Facebook. Sometimes when I go into the Display settings from the menu and change the resolution, I can get the distrotions to clear up temporarily, but they always come back. I have been limping along with this problem for well over a month now, and it has made my system pretty much unbearable.
I have attached output from 'ubuntu-bug linux' and 2 files (I hope) containing screenshots of some typical distortions. d...@deu-laptop:~$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 9.04 Release: 9.04 -D.E.
