Bug Description

Binary package hint: xorg

It seems to happen more when surfing the web. I thought maybe it was an issue with flash so I removed it and left it off but when ever I have may tabs open in Opera or Firefox the display goes crazy.

Ubuntu 10.04 Beta1 i386 updated as of Friday March 26 2010 - 0845 EST

Machine is a LT3103u from Gateway:

Athlon L110
ATi 1275 with 256mb Shared Video
2 Gig of RAM
250 HD

Didn't have any issues with 9.10 or Kubuntu 9.10.

Thanks,

The fix mentioned improves things greatly, but I do still observe the issue even with the fix.
