I got my performance back, thanks to the links Sven provided. I ended up having to roll back
xserver-xorg-core xserver-xorg-input-evdev xserver-xorg-input-kbd xserver-xorg-input-mouse from backports.d.o. I put these packages on hold. However, I found that apticron gives me the message "E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f." apt-get -f install wants to remove most of X: The following packages will be REMOVED: xserver-xorg xserver-xorg-input-kbd xserver-xorg-input-mouse xserver-xorg-input-synaptics xserver-xorg-video-apm xserver-xorg-video-ark xserver-xorg-video-ati xserver-xorg-video-chips xserver-xorg-video-cirrus xserver-xorg-video-dummy xserver-xorg-video-fbdev xserver-xorg-video-glint xserver-xorg-video-i128 xserver-xorg-video-i740 xserver-xorg-video-intel xserver-xorg-video-mach64 xserver-xorg-video-mga xserver-xorg-video-neomagic xserver-xorg-video-r128 xserver-xorg-video-radeon xserver-xorg-video-rendition xserver-xorg-video-s3 xserver-xorg-video-s3virge xserver-xorg-video-savage xserver-xorg-video-siliconmotion xserver-xorg-video-sis xserver-xorg-video-sisusb xserver-xorg-video-tdfx xserver-xorg-video-trident xserver-xorg-video-tseng xserver-xorg-video-vesa xserver-xorg-video-vmware xserver-xorg-video-voodoo Ideas? --b On Tue, Oct 11, 2011 at 7:59 AM, Sven Joachim <svenj...@gmx.de> wrote: > On 2011-10-11 13:25 +0200, Brad Alexander wrote: > > > I was just wondering if anyone else has run into performance issues on > the > > nvidia driver? > > Not too many people, since the relevant bug¹ has so far "only" 13 > duplicates. ;-) > > > Does anyone know of a fix?
