I'm not sure where you are with this bug, but I believe the bug lies
with Compiz rather than nVidia.

I am using Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid) on a Sony FS315S Laptop (Intel Pentium M
CPU with on board nVidia graphics).

I have experienced the same problem with the screen not refreshing and
the mouse/cursor being 'trapped' and inactive within the application
concerned. Again, it would not appear to be a complete system freeze as
changes such as new tabs in Firefox don't show but do happen in the
background.

I have not found that switching to another desktop or application will
refresh the screen, although I have found that minimising and maximising
the screen will often refresh it correctly.

If I switch from running Compiz to Metacity I do not get these problems
and the screens in open applications refresh correctly.
