I am having this problem using an Asus GeForce GTX 670 Direct CU Mini graphics card.
This is a fresh install of Ubuntu 13.04 x64 with all of the updates. $ uname -r 3.8.0-27-generic As soon as I selected the nvidia-313-updates proprietary driver and rebooted, the problem appeared. (The nouveau driver did not exhibit this problem). $ lshw *-display description: VGA compatible controller product: GK104 [GeForce GTX 670] vendor: NVIDIA Corporation physical id: 0 bus info: pci@0000:01:00.0 version: a1 width: 64 bits clock: 33MHz capabilities: vga_controller bus_master cap_list rom configuration: driver=nvidia latency=0 resources: irq:16 memory:f2000000-f2ffffff memory:e8000000-efffffff memory:f0000000-f1ffffff ioport:e000(size=128) memory:f3000000-f307ffff -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1162954 Title: Nvdia blank black windows To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/1162954/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
