@ Matthias

You are totally correct. This bug still exists.

Clint may not be experiencing it, but 'vanilla-compiz' built yesterday,
still exhibits this bug on my machine.

As a side note, switching workspaces and then switching back to the
workspace where the black windows was originally, also fixes the window
contents. (so resizing/maximizing it isn't the only way(s) to fix it).

It's interesting though, this bug has existed for a very long time and
even with so many users affected, there seems to be no progress made on
fixing it.... SO! in the hopes of maybe doing something about this ~ or
at least getting the ball rolling, and maybe having someone from nvidia
actually be aware of the problem, i have started a thread in the _new_
official nvidia forums.

The new nvidia forum (for linux) is found here;

https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/523298/linux/nvidia-driver-
fails-to-draw-window-contents-properly-with-compiz-and-or-unity-white-
or-black-window/

Could every single person following this bug report please head over
there, sign up (for the nvidia forums) and add your voice to my thread
over there, on this bug???  I have provided nVidia with a link to this
bug report, so hopefully Plagman (or someone else from nvidia) will take
some time to look into this (since it appears to be an nvidia bug) and
hopefully fix it.

thanks :)
