Bug Description
Its not consistent, but when using LibreOffice, at some point my screen distorts and I cannot read anything or even view icons and other graphics. I can still tell that the windows are there, but nothing is readable. I do manage to re-boot my maching that seems to reset my screen. I have even noticed, that as my machine is closing down, I can start to read it again. I just updated to a new version of LibreOffice with no differences. I have an e-mail with a powerpoint file, and when I open it, my screen goes crazy (distorts) This seems to be happing ever since I upgraded to 12.10. I need my word processor.
