I supplied the requested screenshot one day after requested. Is there additional information that I can supply to fix the `incomplete' status for this bug? I see this on two different machines so it is odd that you can't see it too.

I can reproduce this on Ubuntu 10.10 32bit. I can see the same blocky artifacts on the left figure as shown in your screenshot. The file looked normal in Lucid. This is a regression.
