yep, but remember a good 30% of users use non nvidia cards.  This needs to be detected more intelligently.  Maybe compiz should not be enabled by default for non-nvidia cards until this problem is fixed.

Oliver, I'm not sure it's that bad -- "Un-direct fullscreen windows"
should be enabled by default. i.e. full screen windows should draw
directly to the framebuffer. Check your Compiz configuration if you've
messed with it.

My advice, however, is if your driver doesn't support indirect 3D (that
is, any driver other than proprietary nvidia), disable Compiz. It's
really not worth the grief.
