The problem affects applications which listen to RandR events. In Gnome both gnome-desktop (hence gnome-settings-daemon) and gnome-power-manager do it.
I have written 2 patches which make the Gnome desktop usable again by preventing both apps from listening to RandR events. This, of course, doesn't solve the real problem. If no fix is for libxrandr is found in time for Jaunty's release we may want to include my patch as a cheap workaround. -- upgrade to 2:1.2.99.2-0ubuntu1 makes session utterly slow https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/307306 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
