Bug Description
lsb_release -rd: Description: Ubuntu quantal (development branch) Release: 12.10
apt-cache policy pkgname: N: Unable to locate package pkgname
After latest update, screen flickers constantly in Unity.
Desktop background, browsers, windows, folders and files go blank and disappear, then return on mouse move or click.
In gnome (classic) the screen only flickers with Unity plugin - On.
Tried disabling all animations in Compiz effects to no avail.
Reset Unity and Compiz to no avail...
It's giving me a headache so forced to use gnome until bug is rectified.

the duplicate status could be wrong. then again...
i don't see the wallpaper after i click or press something for more than a split second.
when i said: "then return on mouse move or click.", i didn't mean return permanently.
they still keep disappearing after moving the mouse or clicking again.
