I am unsubscribing from this bug.
I contributed a significant number of hours (clear back in JULY, three months
after this bug was originally reported) in an attempt to diagnose or track down
the cause of this bug. My conclusion was that it was with xorg.
Subsequent posts confirmed this:

This Bug has been fixed but not
applied!
It's with Xorg Server, like I said months ago
Can we please get the fix ?

Compiz / vnc screen refresh with nvi
To answer Travis Watkins's earlier questions:
In my experience:
1. VNC works using Metacity compositing.
2. Using Intrepid's Compiz with Jaunty's everything else still does not work.
(Those are my previous comments in a nutshell.)

Compiz / vnc screen refresh with nvidia-restricted driver/Vir
Apparently it's agreed by all of us that this bug is manifest using
nvidia (and ATI, and virtualbox, ?others?) drivers. But the 'trigger'
is a change in one of the packages added to Jaunty. Fixing the
offending package will restore functionality.
I installed Compiz 0.7.8 (intrepid's package) and
I feel confident Travis Watkins is right sending it the xorg-server
direction. I look forward to seeing it resolved

Travis:
Sorry I overlooked your questions. It does work with Metacity
compositing enabled. I haven't had a chance to install an older version
of Compiz yet to see if that works. I was inclined to agree with your
nvidia<->xorg hypothesis, but I hope the changes in Compiz from
0.7.8(Intrepid) to
Please consider the following:
1. VNC with Compiz enabled worked prior to Jaunty using nvidia-restricted v.
173, v.177, & v. 180 (and apparently with the other graphics drivers listed in
the title.)
2. VNC with Compiz enabled DOES NOT work in Jaunty with nvidia-
restricted v.173, v.177, v.180
I have used 4 of my 5 Linux computers with VNC, nvidia-restricted, and
Compiz since Feisty without a single hiccup.
This is a regression to when I used Edgy, Compiz/Beryl and Intel 810
graphics (that's almost 3 YEARS!) Back then the solution to everything
was 'disable Compiz.'
