Binary package hint: unity

In oneiric, moving anything (even small windows) flickers a lot, and shows slow vertical redraws.

This is using the nvidia-current driver. Tested with a 9600GT and a GTX260 on two different computers. Both painfully slow.

When using gnome-shell (and mutter) from oneiric (no PPA) on the same boxes, with everything else untouched (X, nvidia-current, gtk), it's as fast as expected
