Daniel van Vugt mentioned in Comment #48 "I suspect bug 933289 may have the same root cause."
I did report a bug about white line next to the Unity launcher after update 3-25-2012 Bug #964756 And It is marked as duplicate of this bug. But I don't have the white flickering and corruption. I have however a white line from top to bottom, and that makes me thinking, I Have a ATI card and close driver installed but I also had problems with playing video with that driver (playing a video and I'm back to the login screen) I did a work around found here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/921384 [Workarounds] * Switch to -ati * Use oneiric until this is fixed. * Disable Xv in your xorg.conf: Section "Extensions" Option "XVideo" "Disable" EndSection Maybe... Maybe that is the reason i have a white line but NOT the flickering and corruption maybe something worth testing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/963093 Title: Unity 5.8: Flickering and corruption on Unity UI elements To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/963093/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
