@Omer:

Closing this bug prematurely is *almost* enough to convince me to switch
back to Debian.  Please don't do that; you've assumed that a duplicate
will be created; you've assumed that this failure *does* generate a
crash report (it does not, at least for me, with the apport setting
enabled), and you've insulted all of us by insinuating that our time is
less valuable than yours.

As Anderic pointed out; this is trivial to reproduce - every user I know
with Intel video (~6 people that I'm aware of) have given up and
switched back to classic mode or other distros because of this bug.
Most thinkpads have this problem, and it's easy to see the visual
glitches by plugging in a monitor.

In my experience, it does not *always* cause the machine to crash
irrevocably - I've spent the last 30-45 min trying to get a crash file
without success (it only went unresponsive once, and I was able to get
to a VT to restart cleanly).

I've attached some screenshots that show the visual glitches I'm
experiencing, at two different monitor orientations.
