I can confirm that commenting out lines 341-344 of the /usr/bin/compiz script has completely resolved my rendering issues. I haven't experienced any problems since making the change. Thanks to those that suggested it. Just to clarify, these lines in /usr/bin/compiz enable the loose-binding opti

[Bug 269904] Re: Screen refresh problems with nvidia on intrepid

It might be worth trying the very latest driver, 180.18. I had occasional problems with the 173 and 177 series of drivers, then 180.08 was pretty good but not perfect, then 180.11 and 180.16 were progressively worse than 180.08 for refresh corruption. But since I installed 180.18 on the 23rd Dec, I

selkovjr, I second everything you've written regarding xterm. I'm experiencing the same problems to the letter. Blank lines at the bottom after a large amount of text is sent to the terminal. Thanks for describing it so well (and saving me the pain of trying the 180 driver. I never had this proble

@ Christoph Korn: That is just the kind of display errors I get, albeit not that often... @ All: Installing 180.11 drivers makes the situation better for a while, but I did experience some errors when compiz had been running for a long time (and only on my external screen (my computer is a lapto

Hello, think I have a similar problem when compiz is enabled. Please confirm if you are talking here about display errors like this. In my case it is gnome-terminal not being updated sometimes. See the attached video. I am using intrepid amd64. NVIDIA 180.06 drivers. NVIDIA Quadro NVS 140M ** A

As for me I have it on all aps and effects, using Xubuntu. Also with nvidia + twin-view. When it happens (regularly, every few days) I simply don't have any window refreshing itself unless I move the window or another window above it forcing a refresh. Even xmms stops updating itself.

I had very little problems using the 173.xx version in intrepid, and after installing the 180.11 driver from jaunty (still running intrepid), the situation seems to be even better =) To do this (ONLY do this if you are sure about what you are doing, since jaunty is still in heavy development and

Re: [Bug 269904] Re: Screen refresh problems with nvidia on intrepid

I have no error since I installed the last driver from Nvidia's ftp. It's seems the official page shows up to 177.xx version but the ftp stores the 180.16 version. Anyway I have the same bugs only when I use a second screen from my laptop. ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/ 2008/12/14

Is anyone already fixing the bug? Here, the refresh issues mainly affect firefox and konsole. Any information we could provide to help the maintainer to fix the bug? Does it affect other distributions than ubuntu? -- Screen refresh problems with nvidia on intrepid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/
