Public bug reported:

lsb_release -rd: Description: Ubuntu quantal (development branch) Release: 12.10
apt-cache policy pkgname: N: Unable to locate package pkgname


After latest update, screen flickers constantly in Unity. 
Desktop background, browsers, windows, folders and files go blank and 
disappear, then return on mouse move or click.
 
In gnome (classic) the screen only flickers with Unity plugin - On.
Tried disabling all animations in Compiz effects to no avail.
Reset Unity and Compiz to no avail...

It's giving me a headache so forced to use gnome until bug is rectified.
