[Problem]
When the brightness changes the gnome panel pops up a window (the brightness
applet presumably) but the window shows only corruption (see attached images).

[Original Description]
In Karmic, whenever the screen brightness changes (manually via hotkeys or
automatically after the laptop is left idle), a blank white square covers the
upper left corner of the screen and then disappears. In Lucid (testing beta 1
livecd), instead of a white square, what looks like a corrupted notification
window shows up.
