Public bug reported: After booting precise on the E6420, I started checkbox. When checkbox started, there was some screen corruption/artifacting on the terminal window I opened, followed by weird rendering of text in the opened checkbox window. This carried over into other windows (the firefox window I'm in, for instance).
See the attached video to see exactly what I mean.
