Philipp Specht, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xorg-server REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given you already have done this in a prior release, performing this on a release prior to Trusty would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding.

There is a workaround for each window manager: Metacity with Compositing disabled does not show the behavior described above, nor does Compiz with "Sync to VBlank" disabled. After resetting all settings I could think of (both xorg.conf and ~/.nvidia-settings-rc) this led me to the conclusion that compositing is, while not completely broken, at least flawed with the latest nvidia-current. I would be happy to provide any information that might be helpful, but cannot think of any logs, but if there is anything, let me know. edit: Forgot to mention that this did not occur with 10.04 and the 256-series of the nvidia-driver. Upgrading to the nvidia-current version from x-swat (at the time of writing 260.19.12-0ubuntu1~xup2) does not fix the problem described above.
