Bug Description
Binary package hint: xorg
I updated to maverick on my netbook, and when I open a application that uses OpenGL the screen flicker (maybe on each redraw event) doing unusable the desktop and the application.
For example, I cant open firefox. I have to fill this bug with google-chrome (apparently it dont use opengl).
I made a video that attach to the bug with glxgears and glxdemo that show the flickering on my screen.

I try downgrading the package mesa to lucid with:
sudo sed -i 's/maverick/ lucid/g' /etc/apt/ sources. list && sudo aptitude update
sudo apt-get install libgl1- mesa-glx= 7.7.1-1ubuntu3 mesa-common- dev=7.7. 1-1ubuntu3 libgl1- mesa-dri= 7.7.1-1ubuntu3
But it don't work yet, same behavior, so I think that lucid also is affected.
