For some reason the Intel graphics driver broke for me recently. I have
one of these fancy laptops that both have an Intel and an AMD graphics
card, so I've changed to use the AMD card (using the FGLRX driver).

Using this card / driver I still see the issue where the image is on top
of the plot. So, this is not a driver issue.
