I have an Inspiron 1525 notebook with GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller. In Hardy it worked flawlessly. I upgraded to Intrepid after it was released and I have my Ubuntu fully updated. Still, I have this problem. If I run glxgears and move the window it leaves garbage on the screen (seems like glxgears renders on top of compiz, which I have enabled). Also OpenGL screensavers doesn't seem to work either, sometimes they start, but something is wrong with them. I did not experienced a total X lock-up until now. Also OpenArena's screen is corrupted and the menu is invisible. Besides this normal desktop operations work OK, and all compiz effects are also OK. I have experienced a total system lock-up during a fullscreen video playback after about one hour of watching, only a hard switch-off/switch-on worked. I emphasize that this does not happened on Hardy. Maybe something in the new intel driver features causes the problem, like the acceleration architecture, not sure, though. In glxgears I get only around 500 fps. I used to get above 1000 fps.
@Marc Nieper-Wißkirchen: Google Earth is unusable, the screen gets all messed up, and the textures on the globe's surface doesn't show up, either.
