apport information ** Tags added: compiz-0.9 oneiric ubuntu
** Description changed: Since Maverick I get video corruption right when the desktop should be shown on screen. My computer has an nVIDIA GeForce GTS 360M. I have the problem even after adding vga=771 as an option to the startup line. I've been reading on the Internet that many users have this problem, all with relatively new nVIDIA cards. Maybe the culprit is NOUVEAU? This problem is an awful regression introduced in Maverick that should be fixed and marked with HIGH importance because it may prevent new users from adopting Ubuntu: it is a horrible first impression! --- .proc.driver.nvidia.version: NVRM version: NVIDIA UNIX x86_64 Kernel Module 260.19.06 Mon Sep 13 04:29:19 PDT 2010 GCC version: gcc version 4.4.5 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.4.4-14ubuntu5) Architecture: amd64 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.10 DkmsStatus: nvidia-current, 260.19.06, 2.6.35-30-generic, x86_64: installed InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.10 "Maverick Meerkat" -
