Bug Description
I've freshly installed Ubuntu 9.04 from the live-cd.
The place where my mouse was after logging in didn't have a proper background. The mouse cursor was surrounded by a black square.
Next to that, when I'm walking around with my mouse in the menu (pull-down the system menu), moving with my mouse leaves unwanted blocks visible.
Additional, opening any program (for example the help program) don't let the top-bar visible (with the buttons to resize or close the program). Also, most buttons in popup-windows are not visible.
Opening the terminal leaves a complete blank rectangle where normally a terminal window would be. There's nothing readable. I can type blind the word "exit" and press enter to leave the terminal, but nothing is visible of what I'm doing.
The display chip of this computer is an Intel 82815.
Ubuntu 8.04 and Ubuntu 8.10 didn't have these problems on this system with this display chip.
I'd like to go back to 8.10 because this worked perfectly, but I'd also like to move on to 9.04, hoping that this problem will be solved.
Thanks for reading.
If someone else has already reported this problem, I'm sorry. I haven't found this with google as a search machine.
I'm sorry if the chosen package is wrong. This system wasn't able to choose the radiobutton "I don't know"...

Additional information: the system is a HP VL400 (model: P5071T).
In the attachment you can see Firefox, without the top-bar visible.
I opened a menu (System) and you can see by the non-white blocks how I moved my mouse down and up.
I hope this photo illustrates my described bug. My description may not be clear enough, because English isn't my native language...
Other experiences with Ubuntu 9.04: I've got it perfectly performing on an other machine (notebook) in a Virtual Machine (except for the VMware tools...).
