Even without Compiz (or Beryl), the same problem arises if you turn desktop effects compositing on (drop shadow on windows and so forth). May I humbly suggest the offending patch simply be removed? ChrisC wrote: > making compiz enabled by default with this issue *regardless* of blame > would be

I've seen on various mailing lists users of fedora core complaining of this bug since January of this year. So I don't think nvidia is going to feel any urgency implementing a fix. I'm happy to test debian packages BTW, if there is any further need. On Fri, 07 Sep 2007 22:36:14 - Bryan Hask
