apport information

** Tags added: apport-collected compiz-0.9 possible-manual-nvidia-
install reproducible single-occurrence trusty ubuntu

** Description changed:

  Nvidia 334.21 makes the UI jearky, googled and found this on Nvidia
  forums:
  
  "This looks like a problem caused by the system compositor not properly
  waiting for X rendering to finish before performing OpenGL rendering in
  response. The GL_EXT_x11_sync_object extension was designed to solve
  this problem, but it looks like cogl (the back-end library used by
  GNOME's compositor) doesn't use it yet. "
