Thanks for reporting this bug and makes ubuntu better. I think this is due to your nvidia card doesn't support all compositing used by clutter.
You should give a try to netbook-launcher-efl which will land in lucid (there is some plan for some testing and launching the right launcher version on UNE start for lucid). As this is related to hw, I set the bug report as invalid. Do not hesitate to report a new one if it's still slow on lucid with the new launcher (not yet implemented). ** Changed in: netbook-remix-launcher Status: New => Invalid ** Changed in: netbook-launcher (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Invalid -- karmic netbook-launcher very slow on a desktop pc https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/474150 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
