Can confirm similar behavior in my HP Pavillion dv6000 _Nvidia_ GeForce 6xxx (2 year old machine) using nvidia_glx_177. compiz just hangs everything after upgrading to 8.10. Note that in 8.04 compiz had issues with the nvidia driver as well on my machine (memory leaks), but worked fine with the xgl_server. If I can suggest changing the title of the bug as I noticed at least one other non intel driver report. Also, I hope the powers at be don't really think this affects only "a fairly narrow band of fairly old graphics cards". One of my hopes from 8.10 was actually the ability to finally use both the nvidia graphics driver and compiz (if I read nvidia's forums correctly, 177 has a fix for the compiz memory leak issues).
