still get it with the Kubuntu Karmic RC1( ati 200M laptop ) after an kubuntu 9.04 upgrade but also from a liveCD. There's no xorg.conf by default and it does it so I created a simple one and still get it with both "ati" and "radeon" xorg drivers. But, it does not happen I used "vesa"
I've also tried a bunch of individual things like vga=791 in grub boot, and each of the items in the following xorg.conf file individually and as a group. FYI, turning off AIGLX reduced idling CPU usage from about 40% down to the single digits.
