** Description changed: Binary package hint: nvidia-settings As per this forum post: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1469528 In a nutshell, when nvidia-settings --load-config-only is run on startup (which is a default action), compiz performance becomes rather terrible. This has been confirmed on both fresh install and upgrade. The workaround is to disable the action on startup. However, manually going to the nvidia-settings program will bring compiz down to its knees again (at least in my case: I believe another person had no problem). ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 Package: nvidia-settings 195.36.08-0ubuntu2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-21.32-generic 2.6.32.11+drm33.2 Uname: Linux 2.6.32-21-generic i686 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Architecture: i386 Date: Sun May 2 19:19:45 2010 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS "Lucid Lynx" - Release i386 (20100429) ProcEnviron: - LANG=en_US.utf8 - SHELL=/bin/bash + LANG=en_US.utf8 + SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: nvidia-settings + + Steps that (may) reproduce this bug: turn on compiz as default window + manager with sync_to_vblank, loose bindings enabled and indirect + rendering disabled. Load nvidia-settings --load-config-only as a startup + application
