[Bug 269904] Re: Screen refresh problems with nvidia on intrepid

I'm also experiencing this problem with nvidia drivers after 173, but
only in the terminal. Doesn't matter which one. I tried gnome-terminal,
xterm, konsole. But I noticed two things which may be useful to track it
down:

1. For me it only occurs in single-head mode. As soon as I start my
X-Server with a second display attached I have no screen update
problems.

2. I noticed that the problem does not occur when a compiz animation is
played. So enabling the benchmark window fixes the problem. Currently I
use the Paint Fire feature of Compiz to workaround the bug when I'm in
single-head mode. Usually I put the fire into the trash bin. ;-)
