This bug is still here: 1. The known workaround breaks vsync under compiz, and hence makes tearing appear during normal usable, specially making watching videos impossible. 2. Switching users (or going from X to a text console and back) triggers it too. 3. Disabling compiz's sync to vblank, going out of X and back and re-enabling it works fine, but it's extremely annoying, forget-prone and not a solution.
Newer versions of nvidia driver and compiz than those available on Gutsy exist in next ubuntu; maybe those fix it? I can't upgrade the machine where this problem does happen (It's not my computer, but the desktop of a non-tech-savvy user that I do mantain) to try it, but at least on the nvidia part it's a serious problem if newest drivers (which might widen hardware compatibility and fix bugs) aren't available in Gutsy.
