Happens to gnome-shell and cinnamon on Ubuntu 12.04 too. After every
returning from fullscreen applications, there is some chance of
triggering the bug. If triggered, fullscreen toggling does not restore
the sane state.

Flickering looks like an old desktop state, or white, or blue surfaces
are displayed on any screen update (menu fading etc.).

Occurs both with  proprietary nvidia and sandybridge intel drivers, so
it does not seem to be a gfx driver bug, but rather a gnome-shell one.

Does not occur with non-compositing desktops like lxde or gnome fallback
on Ubuntu 12.04.
