I am not the most experienced, however, the suggestion I have is something you
probably have already tried, if not you can try it without negative affects and
put it back if it doesn't help.
Open 'system settings>Advanced Tab> Composting type: and try an alternate
choice to the one you are now using. I have OpenGL, which works for me,
however, I recall that XRender worked for me another time. I am not sure, but
it may depend on your video card. In any event, I would make sure I have the
proper drivers installed in my video card and try the composting solution, if
you haven't already tried that. It worked for me.
