i tried running "compiz --use-root-window --replace &" and then connecting over vnc. while the screen updates under this setting, it was noticeably slower than having visual effects set to none (no compiz). i’m not sure if it was the use root window setting or compiz itself causing the slowness, but thought i would point this out. it was slow enough that i found it not usable so went back to no effects. it turned a mouse click into a mouse drag for me a couple times.
i'm on 64-bit lucid with a geforce 8800 using the “current” version nvidia driver. -- Compiz / vnc screen refresh with nvidia-restricted driver/VirtualBox/ATI fglrx driver using X.org https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/353126 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
