Apparently it's agreed by all of us that this bug is manifest using
nvidia (and ATI, and virtualbox, ?others?) drivers.  But the 'trigger'
is a change in one of the packages added to Jaunty.  Fixing the
offending package will restore functionality.

I installed Compiz 0.7.8 (intrepid's package) and dependencies manually
last night with no change in [lack of] functionality.

(Can someone else install an earlier version of Compiz in Jaunty to back
me up? )

In the meantime, disable Compiz (visual effects) and use Metacity
Compositing if you 'need' a compositing manager; or use the vino
workaround from Jonh Wendell if you can spare the bandwidth.  Both
options will allow us to keep full resolution and use VNC, but we've
still lost functionality.

Xorg devs..... we're anxious to see what you find.  :)
