I updated to nvidia-graphics-drivers-180 - 185.18.14 (and associated
updates) from the PPA.

The problem still persists.  One thing I've noticed is a difference in
the brokenness.

Before in Emacs, quickly scrolling up and down would cause the breakage.
Now, that seems to be gone.  However, switching buffers (Ctrl-X
RightArrow, for e.g.), almost immediate causes the issue to appear.

A cursory test of OpenOffice.org Word Processor seems AOK -- I
definitely saw artifacts, but less grave/apparent than Emacs, before.

Other glitches, that may or may not be attributable to this issue in
general include oddities like only half of window's title bar becoming
solid from transparent when it gets focus.

I'll happily test any other changes -- I'd really like Emacs to not
suck! ;-)
