I am running Linux Mint 17.1 on a Samsung 365E (np365e5c-s01ub) with AMD Radeon HD 7520G, running Kicad 2015-2-22 BZR 5447, which is all pretty fresh.

I am having these same troubles, and so I am going to try putting the following into /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-fixkicad.conf (which I had to create):

Section "Device"
  Identifier "radeon1"
  Driver "radeon"
  Option "EXAPixmaps" "off"
EndSection

thanks to c4757p for this suggestion
