I've seen this problem in this PC for years. Many times Linux works normally, without problems. Every now and then, depending on the programs I open, Ubuntu (and other Linuxes I tested) switches into a "graphic corruption mode": some screen elements are not drawn correctly.
For instance, while navigating with Firefox, after scrolling down on a webpage, only the lower part of the screen scrolls down, the rest remains as it is. If you hover the mouse cursor over links or tries to select text, then appears in the screen some text that was not shown without selecting. In other words, the webpage scrolls down, but the display is not updated correctly unless you select text. Unfortunately, I could not take a screenshot of Firefox with problems because the screen is updated and no more error is shown, neither in screen nor in screenshot.
The worst problem seems to be Emacs, screenshot attached. The white background is not shown, in its place is shown whatever was shown before selecting the Emacs window, like the desktop or other window's contents. Most of the times the "graphic corruption mode" is switched on is because I started Emacs, but not only Emacs causes this. On other distributions I got that problem very often using yakuake (IIRC it was Gentoo).
If I switch to terminal (Ctrl + Alt + F1) and change back to desktop, the "graphic corruption mode" is switched off, and screen mostly show the correct elements, except for some black or white lines that are shown occasionally.
To make the situation even worse, sometimes, instead of entering "graphic corruption mode", the computer freezes. Only the mouse cursor still moves, nothing else. The programs continue running after the freeze (I can tell you that for sure) but without input and output all that is left for me to do in that situation is a hard reset.
