Comment 8 for bug 289566

I've just upgraded to the xorg in the intel-gfx-testing ppa, and the
problem still persists - ie compiz really garbles most of the screen,
and even with it turned off fonts start degrading over time eventually
becoming black squares. I find this works best when setting gnome font
rendering to Monochrome as in the attached screenshot
(System>Preferences>Appearance).

I've also attached my Xorg log file just for reference.

Thanks for this.
