Hello all

I have:
Description:    Ubuntu 8.10
Release:        8.10

Linux xxxxx 2.6.27-11-generic #1 SMP Thu Jan 29 19:28:32 UTC 2009 x86_64
GNU/Linux installed with actual updates.

I have Nvidia driver 177.82 installed.
I have configuret TwinView with first screen 1440x900
second screen 1600x1200 resolution.

Now I have observed the following behaviour.

1. First all is working fine I can open applications and terminals and
documents, etc.

2. Then after a while, when the free memory of the computer (installed 4
GB) gets low (less that a 1/2 GB free) the content of fresh opened
windows starts to freeze (is no more correctly displayed).

3. For a while I can resize the window a bit (make it bigger) then the content 
is refreshed/displayed. I can still work in the window I just don't see any 
updates of the window content changes. 
Al the previous opened windows (programmes) are still working fine/normal, I 
can enter data and the changes getting displayed.

4. Then after a while, even the older opened windows getting affected
and I can only reboot the computer to get ridge  of this behaviours
(maybe restart of the X server would do, but I just reboot).

I'm very happy how Ubuntu 64 is working, compared with Vista (have dual
boot installation) it is very fast, congratulations, but this small bug
really hampers me to recommend it to other in my company (I'm the first
Linux Ubuntu tester in my company)

If you need further info feel free to contact me.
Would be grate if there would be a way to solve this problem.

Thanks for you effort

Greetings Chris
