[Bug 568988] Re: [Lucid][Ubuntu 10.04][ATI cards] Slow/freeze windows management (resize, maximise, .etc) with fglrx driver + compositing desktop.

Thank you very much for the patch. It completely solved the freeze windows management problem. But the proposed workaround for the memory leak problem does not work for me. Typically xorg will use around 250m after X started. Then the memory use will grow to around 3G after one day. (this is no

@Jamin W. Collins I did what you said and it has been working well so far. In fact the freeze was rare even before I switched the kernel. It used to happen like once in a month so I don't know whether your resolution is really working. Thanks all the same. -- Thinkpad T61p hardlock flashing ca

I'm also experiencing this bug on Intrepid beta. I cannot launch synaptic or other programs from the menu. However, I can still launch these programs using gksudo or gksu from gnome-terminal WITHOUT INPUT PASSWORD. Syslog entry: Oct 4 15:53:46 larry-laptop kernel: [ 297.198019] gksu[7675]: se
