Bug Description
Using fresh dev quantal installation, I am seeing corruption of the screen making the computer unusable. The terminal gets first set to correct mode, but later, vertical stripes appear (screenshot will be attached). When launching lightdm, there are inclined horizontal lines superimposed over whatever is on the desktop (screenshot attached).
