[Springnuts <1385457@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Have added xorg edgers ppa repository, and am now using the correct nvidia driver 340.46.  (see http://www.binarytides.com/install-nvidia-drivers-ubuntu-14-04/).  
Problem persists.
Addition symptom - unchanged - is that when first logging on there is a period of grace during which the windows do clear away properly when closed or minimised - about two or three minutes.

Title:
  "Show desktop" shows remains of previous windows not wallpaper

Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Using show desktop should clear all windows away to show clear
  wallpaper.  Instead the ghost images of all previously opened windows
  are visible.
