Bug Description
Binary package hint: xserver-
I am using metacity since compix crashed (bug 712810). I launched an xterm but there is only garbage in the window, and also around, on the desktop and adjacent windows (unless they are redrawn). This is on today's live image.
I experienced a full X lock up earlier while clicking around with unity/compiz. The whole screen got scrambled. Unfortunately I had not set up ssh access so I could not investigate.

The dmesg output got consumed by me pressing alt-sysrq-t at one point. Here is a stripped kern.log.
