Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-nv
Just installed feisty herd 4 on a new machine from dell, with the following nvidia card: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GeForce 7300 LE (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA]) Subsystem: Dell Unknown device 0405 Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 16 Memory at dd000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M] Memory at c0000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M] Memory at de000000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M] [virtual] Expansion ROM at dfe00000 [disabled] [size=128K] Capabilities: [60] Power Management version 2 Capabilities: [68] Message Signalled Interrupts: Mask- 64bit+ Queue=0/0 Enable- Capabilities: [78] Express Endpoint IRQ 0 Capabilities: [100] Virtual Channel Capabilities: [128] Power Budgeting using the default 'nv' driver, 2d gfx performance was really bad. moving around windows, scrolling in firefox was pretty slow, but still somewhat usable. the installer screen with the map to select timezone became unusable when I clicked on the map to zoom in: 1 frame every 2-3 seconds. minimizing the window allowed me to get past that screen in a reasonable amount of time. ** Affects: xserver-xorg-video-nv (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- 2d sluggishness with 'nv' driver https://launchpad.net/bugs/86617 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
