Re: Does metacity compositor use acceleration?

I'm gonna stick with it for a while and see if it improves or I can fix it. The latest updates I downloaded today seem to have improved it a bit. It's definitely faster now than before. But it's still noticeably slower than compiz or metacity with no compositing. -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailin

Window controls: minimise and maximise icons are confusing?

Hey, just a thought: On Lucid, after I've maximised a window and I then want to unmaximise it I keep finding myself pressing the minimise button instead. I think it's because of the icons: minimise is a down arrow and maximise is an up arrow, which suggests that minimise is the reverse of maximise

Does metacity compositor use acceleration?

Does the compositor that you can enable in metacity in hardy use 3D acceleration? I like it better than compiz (the alt-tab isn't broken for one thing) but it seems slow. Thanks -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: http
