i can confirm this on ubuntu 9.04 using the provided nvidia diver (180)
and also on driver version 185 !

If we set "unredirect fullscreen windows" on, the tearing on fullscreen
stops completely. But this results in blinking whenever we right-click
in the fullscreen app: the desktop shows and then re-disappears, and
this is VERY annoying rendering the fullscreen experience an unbearable
one.

If we set the option "unredirect fullscreen windows" off, the blinking
stops completely but the tearing comes back in a horrible break line at
the top of the screen.

** Changed in: compiz (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Confirmed

** Tags added: compiz fullscreen nvidia
