Nice find, the DRI does stop the problem on ATI/AMD cards! I defo think my next shopping trip will include a find of a LP PCI-X Nvidia, ATI/AMD r taking the mick now with their lack of support. Sod 'em! Any recomendations for a Myth compat card for about $50/$70?

I was concerned about editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf as it seems to be automated now, but changing :

Section "Device"
 Identifier "Configured Video Device"
 Option "DRI" "off"
EndSection

Seemed to work. I wanted to log this just in case new Ubuntu users wonder what to edit should this gitty bug filter out into release.
The DRI line can go into that section and it sorts it.

Cheers all for your help (again!)
