(Get the code!)
I don't know that the static is the same issue. The thing I'm terming "static" is stuff that looks like analogue static. E.g., stuff that is active around window borders or between significant changes of color. That *particular* issue has gone away, or isn't manifesting.
What I'm terming "Corruption", which is a significantly worse problem, is corruption of the image(s) in memory which aren't fixed until the image is refreshed by the program; e.g., mouseover an icon, etc. I don't think I ever saw the -20 kernel upgrade, but I'm on 2.6.32-21. I just booted without the workaround, and have the same problem still. It's virtually unuseable (currently, my "t" is corrupt, parts of the firefox pane are totally corrupt, corruptions rampant across the screen).
