I am experiencing this problem with Ubuntu 11.04. Sometimes my machine will run smoothly for days, but then moving windows around becomes jerky, like the frame-rate is wrong resulting in tearing (especially annoying with Wobbly Windows). I have an nVidia GTX 460 running driver 280.13. My CPU is an AMD A8-3850.
I do not understand why the rating of this bug is 'low', as anyone who experiences it will (in most cases) restart Ubuntu. The next time I experience is I will try Rocko's method (restarting Compiz). I believe this bug is more significant that 'low' as it has a direct impact of end-user experience. If the goal of Ubuntu is to gain 200 million users, then small things like this should be ironed out at a priority. Users love a smooth, responsive fluid UI - this was proved by a study recently conducted by Intel (who reverse engineered the iPad user experience). This bug was created in 2009, yet still hasn't been assigned to anyone? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/380129 Title: Performance degrades over time To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/380129/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : compiz@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
