I'm not sure about the driver but i have a nvidia 8500. However i KNOW this has nothing to do with the drivers because:
1. I have seen this bug on every linux computer with turned off compiz and stuff. 2. Opengl applications work perfectly. 3. This is the most obvious proof. There is another bug when you right click an icon and select "Stretch Icon" and stretch it in weird ways. The stretching is drawn with no flickering and with correct alpha channel. The bug is that if you stretch it in weird ways the icon will start moving as if you were dragging it and is still is drawn correctly. To fix the flickering and the alpha channel bug all you have to do is to use the rendering code used by the "Stretch Icon" feature and apply it on icon dragging. ** Attachment added: "flickering.png" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/37788327/flickering.png -- Icons on desktop are being drawn with flickering and alpha-channel ignorance when moved around https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/403997 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
