This is really annoying. Emacs buffer text is messed by random color and unreadable. ( NVIDIA-180 driver, Compiz enabled)
I don't want to disable Compiz visual effects because transparency and expose are very useful. 

My workaround:

get old NVIDIA driver (version 173) and install it manually.

possible side effect:

I have to re-install the driver when linux kernel version changed.
sigh...
