Title:
  Display corruption in Lucid

Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Since upgrading from karmic desktop to lucid I have started to
  experience display corruption.  All my windows start to have dotted
  lines drawn across them, and also the desktop.  The issue does not
  occur immediately after starting X, and can sometimes take a long time
  to occur.  However, once it does occur, it gradually starts to affect
  all windows and the level of corruption starts to increase.  It does
  appear that windows are affected individually, rather than the entire
  display being affected as one big canvas.  See attachment for an
  example of the corruption in a Firefox window.

  The behaviour in this bug is very similar to that in bug #546827.
  However, that issue has now been fixed for the original reporter but
  is not fixed with my set up.

  I am using an nvidia GeForce 7600 GS, running the nvidia-glx-185 driver. It's a multi-monitor setup using xinerama.
