you did not read this bugticket in depth, did you? it`s not about documentation of nvidia cards and it`s not on working on nouveau - it`s about integrating an existing patch into the ubuntu trusty package !!! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/748184 Title: [nouveau] Text alpha blending is broken with nouveau Status in xserver-xorg-video-nouveau package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Binary package hint: compiz Where just the font should be fading out, the whole window decoration becomes transparent where the font should be and you can see through the decoration to what ever is below the title bar.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 748184] Re: [nouveau] Text alpha blending is broken with nouveau
The issue with nouveau (AFAIK) is twofold: 1. Nvidia has not provided documentation for open source developers to support all GPUs fully; and 2. There are not enough developers working on nouveau so it lags behind even more. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/748184 Title: [nouveau] Text alpha blending is broken with nouveau Status in xserver-xorg-video-nouveau package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Binary package hint: compiz Where just the font should be fading out, the whole window decoration becomes transparent where the font should be and you can see through the decoration to what ever is below the title bar.

Maarten says: "This might possibly be a dupe of https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55310 Quantal should have this fixed and it looks like it might be possible to SRU this to precise if it's the same bug.
