I've seen this problem on my i855gm and my ilk. Can't remember whether it
happens on my i945, too. Atm I can't reproduce it anymore on any of my
machines, tough. It usually happens fairly reliable with kde
compositioning (vsync enabled) and full-screen video watching when
switching between mplayer and other apps using the cover flip. Recently
I've also seen it without composition in gnome and mesa stuff.

So my money is on timing problem ... at least for the moment.
