I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 8.04 and apparently ran into this bug. I never encountered these problems before in previous releases, I was previously running 7.10 (Gutsy). Toggling SAVE_VBE_STATE to false in /etc/default/acpi-support as Paul Sladen explained in Comment #8 solved the rendering problems for me.

Here's the output for grep . /var/lib/acpi-support/*-*:

/var/lib/acpi-support/bios-version:1VET71WW (1.29 )
/var/lib/acpi-support/system-manufacturer:IBM
/var/lib/acpi-support/system-product-name:2887AVG
/var/lib/acpi-support/system-version:ThinkPad R51

And lspci | grep -i graphics:

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02)
