[Launchpad Bug Tracker <510141@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Updated xserver-xorg and xserver-xorg-common from Update Manager. On restart, part of the desktop is drawn black.
It seems to affect everything in the background such as windows, but the foremost objects such as Docky draw fine.

I'm also running NVIDIA proprietary drivers version 190.53.

I have found this bug is related to Docky and not enabling compositing. Trying to enable compiz gives me this (I've had it working before):
Checking for Xgl: not present. 
xset q doesn't reveal the location of the log file. Using fallback /var/log/Xorg.0.log 
Detected PCI ID for VGA: 
Checking for texture_from_pixmap: not present. 
Trying again with indirect rendering:
Checking for texture_from_pixmap: not present. 
aborting and using fallback: xterm 
no xterm found, exiting

** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Incomplete

X screen drawn incorrectly.
