You have been subscribed to a public bug: Ubuntu 12.04 beta 2 running on Vaio VGN-CR353 (I'll provide more info upon request, I just don't know what to include here).
My screen flickers when (but not always) animating a relatively large portion of the screen such as switching workspace, minimizing/unminimizing windows, showing the Activities menu in GNOME3, dimming the background in favor of a dialog (such as the authentication dialog), but *not* when scrolling a content of a window. This problem has been around since the installation (in the Ubiquity's slideshow).
