At least Basil's problem is the same as this bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/stellarium/+bug/481669

It's a driver bug that has been fixed upstream:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34256

In the comments to the other bug report some users reported that updating from these PPAs helps (if you have Ubuntu):
https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates
https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa

Can you help with this problem?
