Upon reinstalling the driver after the lagginess came back, rebooting gave me the other symptom; the random colors and the shifted vertical display. I've then booted into recovery mode, removed the newly created xorg.conf, and rebooted.
At the moment, I'm running in a lowly 720x400 (not so nice if you're on a 22" 1680x1050 screen). The bug still affects me. -- Using NVIDIA drivers in Lucid causes display shift and flicker, or extreme slowness with compiz https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/521596 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
