Public bug reported: The Unity Dock application mouse over labels are distorted or choppy after new unity or compiz update This bug is from Unity and perhaps Compiz.
It is a issue with the Unity Dock/ Launcher I've been running Ubuntu 12.04 since release, But recently the Dock applications mouse over labels have become distorted or choppy I'm thinking this occurred after a new unity or compiz update that was issued recently. As It was not happening before... This issue occurs on: A Desktop with Nvidia Proprietary Graphics A Laptop with Intel GMA950 A Laptop with Intel HD3000 Steps to reproduce: Update the the latest packages (VIA Update Manager) Reboot Mouse over some dock applications and label is distorted. I can confirm this is with any size dock. See screen-shot. I'd be interested to know this this effects anyone else. Thanks for your time.
