I am having the same problems, experienced on two different machines,
both with ATI cards.

Current machine: Running Kubuntu Feisty Fawn 7.04

$ uname -a
Linux andrey-linux 2.6.20-15-generic #2 SMP Sun Apr 15 06:17:24 UTC 2007 x86_64 
GNU/Linux

$ cat /var/lib/acpi-support/*-*
ASUS A8V-E SE ACPI BIOS Revision 1010
System manufacturer

$ lspci | grep VGA
02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV370 [Sapphire X550 
Silent]

$ fglrxinfo
display: :0.0  screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: RADEON X300/X550/X1050 Series
OpenGL version string: 2.0.6334 (8.34.8)

I might be crazy, but it only seems to happen while I'm in KDE. When I
switch to gnome, the two strips (which are on the bottom-right of each
monitor) aren't there. Or maybe I just don't spend enough time under
gnome for them to appear... But in KDE, they're there as soon as I log
in.

The other machine was running dual monitors as well, with an ATI Radeon
9600xt on an Asus A8N-E motherboard, if I recall correctly. Also on
Kubuntu. I used to have Gentoo which had a similar problem of the mouse
cursor turning into a giant square distortion block (similar to the
fixed strips), but the strips were absent (but my memory is foggy).
