Public bug reported:
With the 470 nvidia display driver on Ubuntu 24.04 with a Geforce GT 730
GPU, multiple apps do not repaint/redraw the screen correctly. I have
attached a screenshot demonstrating the problem occurring with the
"Settings" app. Note that none of the text is appearing in the window.
When I roll the mouse over the window, the text appears beneath the
mouse pointer, so the problem appears be an invalidation/repaint
problem. Similar problems occur with the "Files" app, and the "Text
Editor" app, among others. When I switch to the nouveau display driver,
the problem goes away, so I can be confident the problem is specific to
the nvidia driver.
