I notice there is a difference in vertical refresh rates:
nouveau: 1366x768@60 = broken/corrupt
nvidia: 1366x768@50 = working

In fact, when using nvidia it doesn't let you go above 50Hz, suggesting
the 60Hz used by nouveau is partly to blame. Though I know a mode
setting is made up of several variables, so doubt the problem is just
the vertical refresh rate.

I also tried creating a 50Hz mode with cvt and xrandr, but so far have
had no luck eliminating the corruption.
