nVidia driver bug, is it solved?

[PryGuy]

Peace, people!
I have a very nasty bug that breaks window titles. I haven't seen it on machines running with ATI or Intel cards installed. I have seen it on ALL my machines with nVidia cards... Will they solve the bug? Shame on them... :(

The bug is #99508 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-177/+bug/99508)

Well I expect you'll need to give people a bit more information - perhaps the bug report number from launchpad.

I've not seen it myself - not with the beta legacy driver I needed nor the 177. driver I'm using now.

Sorry, my fault, updated with the bug number :)

Been around the block that one hasn't it ;)

I've learned to live with it by keeping the cursor away from the minimize, restore, maximize buttons, or clicking inside the affected window when that is unavoidable.

I wonder how few of us have nVidia cards according to the poll... :confused:

For me it has been solved in Jaunty when I installed the latest proprietary driver version (currently 180)
