Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Is what you are seeing looking like horizontal lines that flash near the bottom of the screen or something similar? There is a bug report for this particular problem and a solution in being tested. Otherwise, can you please detail what kind of corruption this looks like? Thanks!
