Bug Description
Binary package hint: compiz
There are screen distortions when I run compiz or try to watch xine movies. I have an AMD 64 machine running 64 bit KUbuntu 9.04 ( Jaunty Jackalope). I have settled with using no visual effects while I tried every recommended configuration with no luck. I am using an Nvidia 6600GT graphics card with the 185 beta driver from nvidia. I have tried all previous graphics card drivers including 180 with no luck.
I have a dual screen configuration but disabling that did not help the situation.
I have also attached a screen shot

I do not think this bug is with the 180 driver even though it classification has just been changed.. I have tried all the available nvidia driver available through the ubuntu hardware manager. I have also tried the 185 beta driver. That said it may be an issue with all the nvidia graphics driver.
Another thing to note is that I did not have to issue with fedora using the same linux kernel version.
