Paul, I'm not sure what is causing it. I have a Vaio Z1 too. I have
stopped the hard locks by dropping the colour depth to 16bit. There are
still artifacts on a lot of the mouse over buttons, in several
applications, so it is most likely an xorg problem. Anyway, the locks
will disappear if you drop the colour depth.
Cheers,
Adam
