Public bug reported: Horizontal lines crossing the screen. I notice waves on screen (as if the refresh rate is too low). This is more noticeable on dark colors like gray and also on transparencies (like the dash).
This is not an hardware problem. On windows everything works fine I also notice that this waves only appear when the "ubuntu" logo first shows on the screen when booting i.e. not in grub or bios screen. I have already reinstalled drivers, changed resolution, changed refresh rate on compiz settings, etc. This just keep happening. Also it seems this doesn't happen with modeset disabled.
