Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nvidia-current

After upgrading to Natty I have massive graphics problems. I hope this
is the right place for this problem. Maybe this is related to Xorg, too.

As I read on the Nvidia website the drivers are suitable for my graphics
card.

1. Moving and resizing windows is extremely slow with nvidia-current
(nvidia-current -> 270.41.06-0ununtu1) activated. With nvidia-173
(nvidia-173 -> 173.14.30-0ubuntu1) moving windows is acceptable but
resizing is still poor.

2. Returning back from screensaver to session the screen left black
(nvidia-current -> 270.41.06-0ununtu1). Only the mouse pointer is
visible. I have to restart ubuntu.

3. I tried both nvidia driver from jockey, nvidia-current ->
270.41.06-0ununtu1 (not feasible) and nvidia-173 -> 173.14.30-0ubuntu1.
nvidia-173 is feasible  but there are strange artefacts on the desktop
(black and white stripes) when returning back from suspend mode. These
artefacts are in some windows, for example the whole banshee  window has
these artefacts when it is in full screen mode, minimizing and then
maximizing banshee resolves this issue. If there is no window open then
the background has these artefacts, restarting nautilus solves this
issue, the background image is then visible again. A screen shot can be
downloaded at "http://test.create3000.de/Bildschirmfoto.png";.

With Maverick I had no problems at all with graphics. The graphics
driver I used from jockey was NVIDIA 260.19.06.
