Don't get tricked by the title in the URL, it also happens with the included Matrox drivers and ATI drivers according to the report. I'm also seeing this on Fedora 9, the productive workstations that is hit worst uses three Xinerama screens.

Bug #10797 seems to be the same thing. As a temporary workaround I'll try to switch from Xinerama to TwinView on my coworker's boxes. Any way I can help to track this down? Detailed steps how to reproduced this is in the ubuntu bug report.

Here are some more reports of the same problem, I guess:
