On rebooting into my installed system on same box
- dell [optiplex] 960 (c2q-q9400, 8gb, amd/ati cedar radeon hd 5000/6000/7350/8350)

AND using 'Ubuntu on Xorg' (sorry i forget exact wording) on Ubuntu jammy.

- I am NOT getting any video glitches using the GNOME desktop; if I had I would have noticed before now

HOWEVER

- SCREENshots are showing issues to the left & right of what my scree showed just as LIVE image showed, these are only visible using PRINTSCREEN, and AFTER screen-position-change (even if change is very slight)

What I see varies on each SCREENSHOT but on the attached picture I see bits of the terminal window mostly; parts of my `gpicview` display of first picture (will talk about this shortly!) .. & other windows.

PLEASE NOTE the image shown in the `gpicview` window; nothing glitchy shows on that picture!! which was directly after login before I adjusted screens; the issues appear to be after moving alignment of screen .... on four subsequent PRINTSCREEN presses after slight changes of screen.alignment GLITCHES were evident a per top-left & bottom-right of the image itself.

I see nothing wrong on my displays, I'm talking about PRINTSCREEN images saved to disk that are later viewed in my old gpicview.

Note: this installed system was installed in the artful cycle; is release-upgraded every 6 months (though wasn't on artful long at all) so is heavily modified.

This is my observation of this session only; I'd want to confirm what I wrote here on subsequent logouts/logins before I relied on it.. (QA-test installs & other stuff going on at same time currently)
