I have the same problem with a GeForce 420 on 12.04 (precise):

> lspci
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation NV17 [GeForce4 MX 420] (rev a3)

Performance is really poor (windows lag behind) and the whole desktop is not very usable. Nouveau is installed in version:
ii libdrm-nouveau1a 2.4.32-1ubuntu1 Userspace interface to nouveau-specific kernel DRM services -- runtime
ii xserver-xorg-video-nouveau 1:0.0.16+git20111201+b5534a1-1build2 X.Org X server -- Nouveau display driver

Which workaround should I try?
