Binary package hint: compiz
This bug is hard to describe and to record in gtk-recordmydesktop.
The issue seems to be a vsync one, as sometimes, when switching workspace, you get some kind of "magnet" effect, with distortion for less than half a second. We can notice as well some X damage issue not repainted when scrolling fast on a webpage (so part of the page is repeated).
Seems that enabling the force X to sync in the workaround and setting the sync to vblank in nvidia-settings reduces the issue (not completely fixing it so).
With unity using that by default, we should take that into account.
Plan of action:
- see if we can enable sync to vblank by default on nvidia-settings
- in the detection plugin, enable the compiz workaround if the driver is the proprieraty nvidia driver.
