We're up to 290.20 in Precise, which should resolve this bug.
For oneiric you should be able to get the updated driver via Jockey.
For other older releases you can get it via PPAs or download from the
NVIDIA site, but we can't do SRUs of proprietary drivers to those
releases.

Bug description:
Binary package hint: compiz
I have discovered a fairly consistent behavior: When multiple
aplications are open, the bug can manifest itself as: the active
window is blank (white in my case... title bar displays but nothing
else.) while windows behind it will display content. If one of the
unfocused windows is selected, it gains focus, and goes blank. The
previously blank window, no longer focused, regains its content and is
no longer blank.
Switching between applications, the ones gaining focus always going
blank only to regain content after losing focus is quite infuriating.
To force an application to quit being blank, another application is
opened, and applications are switched until the blanking behavior
begins for the new application. (I use terminal as my dummy app...)
Terminal is given focus, observed to be blank, and closed. The
aplication which was behind the dummy application gains focus, and
does not go blank. (this has been verified in classic desktop, not yet
in unity)
