** Description changed:

  Using both Metacity with Compositing and Compiz, occasionally a dropdown
  menu does not get rendered. There is a workaround for each window
  manager: Metacity with Compositing disabled does not show the behavior
  described above, nor does Compiz with "Sync to VBlank" disabled.
  
  After resetting all settings I could think of (both xorg.conf and
  ~/.nvidia-settings-rc) this led me to the conclusion that compositing
  is, while not completely broken, at least flawed with the latest nvidia-
  current. I would be happy to provide any information that might be
  helpful, but cannot think of any logs, but if there is anything, let me
  know.
  
+ edit: Forgot to mention that this did not occur with 10.04 and the
+ 256-series of the nvidia-driver. Upgrading to the nvidia-current version
+ from x-swat (at the time of writing 260.19.12-0ubuntu1~xup2) does not
+ fix the problem described above.
