I just looked into a friend who has the exact same issue and this can be determined: It's not caused soley by nvidia since he has intel drivers ( xserver-xorg-video-intel, Version: 2:2.4.1-1ubuntu10.3) and he's affected. also I have had this on several versions of nvidia drivers, up to 180.35.
the only similiar factors i've found was that we were both running skype version 2.0.0.72-1 and compiz. this could either be a plugin problem from compiz or skype is using a weird way to portray their systray icon. This could also have to do with it being a QT software since i think i saw vlcs systray icon messed up once... -- skype icon in system tray has garbled background https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/327000 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
