This is a serious issue that has affected a large number of users. In

"philip5 ppa" resolved the various issues for me too. In fact it seems
to work remarkably well. No more nasty screen artefacts, no more random
crashes from gnome-terminal or gedit. Whilst I still maintain that

I'm sorry but I beg to differ. I think we CAN pin the blame fairly and squarely

weeks in fact. Perhaps if NVIDIA is unable to resolve the issue in a
timely manner, then it should release the source code so that others may
have a go?
I shall certainly remember this fiasco next time I ever consider

Switching off the desktop resolves the issue of the desktop freezing.
However it still leaves lots of nasty screen artefacts - mostly random
black boxes or parts of the screen that don't refresh. It's usable I
suppose - but only just!
Sad to note that there is still nothing from NVIDIA - other tha

Title:
Resizing Konsole
I'm suffering exactly the same problem with NVIDIA graphics on Natty.
Googling:-

distros - with no real solution in sight other than a very crude and
tricky xserver downgrade.
This is pretty serious beca
