Seeing the same here, fresh Karmic build from the daily cd's. Reproduce:

Install the binary driver using the 'Hardware Drivers' app
Reboot as prompted
after you log in (GDM appears to perform fine), screen draws are incomplete, or very very slow.

Screenshot attached is just after login, the menu's etc are all clickable, but draw very slow. Same for starting and navigating in apps etc.
