Public bug reported: When using compiz with the nvidia driver from lrm, shadows and title bar (if transparent) will become corrupted or simply be missing. This issue is fixed by uninstalled nvidia-glx-new and adding "nv" to /etc/default /linux-restricted-modules-common. Afterwards installing the nvidia binary using the .run from the official site and starting X again will result in a properly functioning nvidia driver.
It appears when lrm installs the nvidia libraries it runs dh_strip on them which causes their checksums to be different from those in the official package. It seems that if nvidia is not doing this, we probably shouldn't be either. ** Affects: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- lrm incorrectly installs nvidia-glx-new https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/214836 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
