Sounds like you're patched! :-)

I just installed the final release of Kubuntu 10.04 LTS, experienced
the problem, applied the patch, and it does just fine. While this is
definitely an issue that is cross-platform (hardware: gpu: ati radeon
and nVidia nouveau; software: gnome, xfce, kde), and it happens on
install and on liveCD, my newer laptop (2008 vintage) does not appear
to have this problem (ati/kde/live).
