Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-control-center
When enabling Compiz via the Visual Effects tab in gnome-control-center, it calls jockey to look for available drivers, which takes several seconds (at least on my machine). It does that, even when no additional driver is needed at all. Jockey does notice that after all but the whole checking and waiting could be avoided if gnome-control-center had knowledge about what driver is in use and whether it's on the whitelist of /usr/bin/compiz Currently on that list are: nvidia intel ati radeon i810 fglrx ** Affects: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- gnome-appearance-properties shouldn't call jockey when enabling Visual Effects if driver is on the whitelist https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/306173 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
