Graphics fragmented on Firefox

Sorry for my English.

I have problems with GUI operating system Lubuntu-11.10 and even Linux-Mint-12

The graphics the first time the PC is fragmented, but if you restart everything is fine.

The problem usually manifests itself in the transparent like tabs in firefox, or full screen when the screen opens the shutdown, but also where Openbox generates previews of the themes or where LXAppearance change the color, the mouse cursor, but also to all screen on the pages of firefox or chrome.

PC is compaq presario, AMD athlon XP 3000+, 256mb ddr, ATI Radeon 9250 128mb.
Hello.

I attach screenshots...

If you restart what?

Please attach Xorg.0.log and dmesg output corresponding to the problem.

The graphics are great if I restart the computer.
Start the computer 2 times, almost always.
I made a hundred restarts.
Both of Lubuntu11.10, on both Linux Mint 12 lxde.
Hello.
I attach Xorg.0.log.
I attach dmesg.

Note 1: The file dmesg and Xorg.0.log files i got them when the graphic was ok, I had to take them when the graphic was bad?

Note 2: I used Ubuntu 9.04 (gnome) and Xubuntu 10.10 (xfce) and had no problems, the problem is lxde? or new version of x.org?
Hello.

That would be better, if there's any difference.

More likely the latter, or the kernel. If you could find good and bad upstream versions of either component and bisect it, that would be great.

Xorg.0.log when the graphics are bad
Comment 9 basic 2012-04-04 04:32:31 UTC
I attach Xorg.0.log when the graphics are bad.
I attach dmesg when the graphics are bad.

Note3: When the graphics are bad in a window, if you move the window to display the graphics better, but if I make a screenshot and bad.

Note 4: The program that uses openGL Stellarium always work well.

Note 5: Which version of kernel and xorg do you suggest using?

Hello.
Comment 10 basic 2012-04-06 11:10:09 UTC
I had the same problem with OS CrunchBang.
CrunchBang-10 32-bit Stable 2.6.32 Linux kernel and X.org 7.5
Hello.
Comment 11 basic 2012-04-10 14:43:04 UTC
I'm trying different linux
I have no problems with Elive + Compiz, it uses X.Org X Server 1.04.2 2008-06-11

Instead I had problems with Bodhi X.Org X Server 1.09.0 2010-08-20

In the future, new versions of xorg again to be compatible with older hardware?
Hello
