I sometimes have really odd Nvidia issues on one machine. And one of those issues is similar to the one you described. I had NO issues with the nouveau drivers, except that in 14.04 I cannot resume from suspend, so I had to move to these awful proprietary drivers, as I need suspend to work.
I would suggest trying out the nouveau drivers (if you can) and see if you can reproduce the bug. If you cannot then it is a bug in Nvidia, and that will probably not get fixed, unless they open source their drivers... but that is unlikely... though intel recently open sourced some drivers, and Nvidia has been showing GNU/Linux some love lately with Steam drawing a lot of attention to us. If the bug is still present we may yet still track it down! -- Regards -- Lubuntu-users mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/lubuntu-users
