Bug#623955: nvidia-glx: regressions with GeForce 8200

Package: nvidia-glx
Version: 260.19.44-1
Severity: important

Hello,

With version 270.30-1, the nvidia driver is overall very slow... in
particular, with nautilus: it is now impossible to drag and drop a
file to a folder whose contents is expanded in the same window:
individual lines of the window being drawn can be seen!

These issues started with version 260.19.44-1 (I gave nouveau a try
meanwhile, but it is also broken in different ways, cf #601936). With
version 260, I also noticed some oddities in the rendering of shadows
(or lack thereof) of buttons.

The previous version (195.36.31-7) was working fine.


Cheers,

-- 
Stéphane
