I had a couple boxes with similar problems.
People suggested a few compiz related changes that didn't help.
One box got better when I upgraded the video card.
I didn't have the time or energy to fuss with the other one,
so I retreated to 9.10.  According to lshw - short the video card
I gave up on was:

/0/100/1/5                  display     RS480 [Radeon Xpress 200G Series]
/0/100/1/5.1                display     Radeon Xpress Series (RS480)

and, the one that worked was:

/0/100/2                          bridge      RS480 PCI-X Root Port
/0/100/2/0                        display     G73 [GeForce 7600 GS]

Was thinking of trying 10.04.1, which is the equivalent of 10.04 plus
all the updates, plus a few more updates.

Have you applied all the 10.04 updates?
