You have been subscribed to a public bug: I guess this is related to Nvidia binary driver and Compiz. When I turn compiz off I don't have this problems.
I attached the screenshot when pgadmin application is running; there one can see how the database objects display is broken (tree-list on the left). I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 with nvidia driver 185.18.36. The kernel version is 2.6.31-20 Also, when I move my mouse to the top of the screen (for instance, wanting to click Applications menu) and then the pointer touches the top of the screen - whole display flickers. This behavior was much worse until I changed my screen resolution in "Preferences->Nvidia Xserver Settings" from 'auto' to '1680x1050' (that is native resolution of my monitor). I have onboard nvidia 8300 graphics adapter: ma...@buntor:~$ lspci | grep VGA 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation C77 [GeForce 8300] (rev a2) SImilair 'broken' behavior I notice in pidgin while having chat conversations, or in Evince while browsing PDF documents, in Gnome File Open dialog and so on. On the other hand I never experienced something like that in Xchat. ** Affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Some window contents broken (display driver problem?) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/555152 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
