I updated to nvidia-graphics-drivers-180 - 185.18.14 (and associated updates) from the PPA. The problem still persists. One thing I've noticed is a difference in the brokenness. Before in Emacs, quickly scrolling up and down would cause the breakage. Now, that seems to be gone. However, switching buffers (Ctrl-X RightArrow, for e.g.), almost immediate causes the issue to appear. A cursory test of OpenOffice.org Word Processor seems AOK -- I definitely saw artifacts, but less grave/apparent than Emacs, before. Other glitches, that may or may not be attributable to this issue in general include oddities like only half of window's title bar becoming solid from transparent when it gets focus.

[Bug 303224] Re: garbled Emacs display when running under compiz with nvidia drivers
** Description changed: Binary package hint: nvidia-glx-177 In a nutshell: garbled Emacs display when running under compiz with nvidia drivers. More precisely: when Emacs (running in its own X11 window) attempts to refresh the window (e.g., when scrolling up or down a page, jumping to top, control-L or something), it often happens that only the upper portion of the window is refreshed. This also sometimes happens with gnome-terminal (typically when scrolling), but much less reproducibly. With Emacs, it occurs so frequently that it makes the editor almost unusable. Software hardware config summary: Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Kernel 2.6.27-9-generic x86-64 system (with 64-bit userland) on a Core 2 Duo nVidia driver version 177.80 OR 177.82 OR 180.08 (I tried all three) nVidia Quadro NVS 290 rev 161 graphics card compiz 1:0.7.8-0ubuntu4.1 Pretty much any Emacs (emacs22-x, emacs22-gtk, emacs-snapshot-gtk) To reproduce: launch Emacs, in its own window, on some text file (of more than one page), with the compiz window manager running; jump to the bottom of the file (M-), and then then to the top (M-) or refresh the screen (C-l): quite often, only the upper portion of the window is refreshed, not the bottom, with the limit not necessarily along a line boundary. Only the display is affected: jumping to a different workspace and back will redraw the window correctly. The bug does not occur with metacity, so it's probably composite- related. Probably nVidia's fault, because I couldn't produce a similar effect with an Intel 945GME with the X.org/intel driver (and 32-bit but otherwise similar software config). I sent a bug report of similar content to the nVidia team (aka /dev/null). I tried removing --lose-bindings from the compiz options, and disabling DamageEvents in the xorg.conf, neither seemed to have any effect. Ubuntu bug #269904 (similar problem affecting Firefox al) is possibly related to this, but _not identical_ (because the latter bug has a workaround which does not help for this one). Although it's hard to tell since the bug report has been much polluted. - On the other hand, Ubuntu bug #239917 is _not_ related (at least the - main part of it is not; the bug I describe is perhaps alluded to). + On the other hand, Ubuntu bug #239917 is _not_ related (at least the main part of it is not; the bug I describe is perhaps alluded to). + [lspci] + 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation Quadro NVS 290 (rev a1) + Subsystem: nVidia Corporation Device 0492 -- garbled Emacs display when running under compiz with nvidia drivers https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303224 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 303224] Re: garbled Emacs display when running under compiz with nvidia drivers
I have the same problem using Vim, so I imagine the bug is related to gnome-terminal + compiz. compiz 1:0.7.8-0ubuntu4.1 gnome-terminal 2.24.1.1-0ubuntu1 nvidia-glx 177.80-0ubuntu3 video card: nVidia Corporation GeForce 8400M GS (rev a1) -- garbled Emacs display when running under compiz with nvidia drivers https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303224 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 303224] Re: garbled Emacs display when running under compiz with nvidia drivers
@Greg Michalec → If you're running vim in a gnome-terminal (which by your comment I assume you are) then it falls under the gnome-terminal umbrella, yes, and indeed all programs running under gnome-terminal are affected to some extent. My bug report was mostly about Emacs running its own window (as opposed to within a terminal), because then I find the bug even more frequent. -- garbled Emacs display when running under compiz with nvidia drivers https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303224 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
