I just upgraded my laptop today and ran into this issue. I also found a
thread on the gentoo forums where downgrading to 260 drivers fixed the
problem, so I suspect the culprit is the 270+ nvidia driver.

On my desktop running Fedora 15, I'm also running compiz 0.9.4, on gnome
3 in classic mode, and have not seen this issue. There I'm using 280
nvidia drivers, cause 270/275 were giving me issues with screen
corruption on the desktop (lines below the panels/windows, incorrectly
drawn shadows, etc). Maybe upgrading to 280 series might fix this
problem. Anyone care to try? ;)

It might be hardware dependent as well.  My laptop has a Geforce Go 6200
(NV43) and the desktop has a Geforce 9500 GT (G96). In a few others
posts I read reports on 6-series hardware.

Can anyone confirm whether 173 works or doesn’t work on the current
kernel and x server for 6-series hardware?
