I have no idea in which package the bug may be, as this affects the
whole system, but it is absolutely CRITICAL as it makes the whole
operating system unusable, This is a regression and started happening
after upgrading from 10.04 to 10.10
Pieces of graphic contents (e.g. a portion of a video from youtube or of
some graphics generated by an application) persist after the application
is closed, and sometimes are displayed even ON TOP of other windows.
After a few minutes of using the system, the display is a total mess.
It would be nice to know if there is at least a workaround for cleaning
the display without rebooting.
I'm under the impression this may be some problem with the display card
graphics, as it seems to happen mainly with applications which I think
use hardware acceleration, such as Flash Plugin, most video players, and
applications using OpenGL.
I've noticed that when I boot the computer, an Nvidia screen is shown
with the big red word "Beta", which I hadn't seen before upgrading to
10.10.
Is it possible to have the stable drivers back?
