I have an early 2008 rev E Macbook Pro with the 8600m GT chipset. Lately I've been having issues with screen savers flaking out, double images, distortion, etc on the screen...but I only notice it when the screen saver is on and not all the time.

Is this something that would be a symptom of the failures acknowledged by the apple KB article here? http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2377

Furthermore is there a definite way to test for this failure if I were to take the laptop in to an Apple store? or by running the diagnostics?
