I am also experiencing difficulties that sound very similar to this problem. I just got an Acer laptop, Travelmate 2300, and installed jaunty Ubuntu on it, latest release, the standard CD distribution. The video has problems. Various windows and rectangular areas of the screen break up into diagonal lines often. It looks like a TV that has lost horizontal sync. The area can often be fixed by clicking on it, or on the window's top, or by swiping another good window over the affected window, causing the repainting of the afflicted window. I would submit "full debug info" if I knew what that meant, and how to get it.
