This fix is known to work with the nVidia non-Free driver package on Xfce & Openbox. It should work on any GTK based DE/WM & possibly others. The page will be updated as feedback comes in.

Here is the very simple procedure

1. Open /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/90-mhwd.conf in your favourite text editor with root permission.

2. Under Section Device add the following line

Option "metamodes" "nvidia-auto-select +0+0 { ForceFullCompositionPipeline = On }"

3. Save the file & log out/in.

That's it.

It certainly works perfectly for some of us.
