Acabo de actualizar una computadora portátil a Ubuntu 16.04, y ahora veo el siguiente problema. En momentos aleatorios (pero cuando se realiza alguna actividad gráfica, como abrir una ventana), la pantalla se distorsiona y la computadora se congela. Lo único que se puede hacer es apagarlo con fuerza; que, por supuesto, pierde las entradas de registro del kernel que pueda haber.
¿Qué puedo hacer sobre esto? dmesg (después de un arranque) enumera algunos rastros de pila de aspecto ominoso relacionados con los gráficos:

Reinstalar los controladores X, como en 16.04 - Cómo purgar los controladores predeterminados de Intel y reinstalar los controladores gráficos Intel no ayudó. En versiones anteriores de Ubuntu, este problema no existía, aunque algunas operaciones en 3D (como el cubo de escritorio giratorio) no hicieron bien las transformaciones de perspectiva.
