Public bug reported: 8.04 kernel 2.6.24.18-generic gnome 2.22.2 x86 unknown cause. with or without compiz running. sometimes restarting X momentarily fixes the issue but bug still remains. only about 20% of the screen is affected by this; some sort of mirroring of the area+flickering. also noticed that using system>preferences>Screen Resolution tool while the flickering is active greatly aggravates the issue, rendering the session unusable. no crash report detected nor auto generated. this was first spotted on 6/16/08
