I am using said patch, it does *not* solve all the problems I'm experiencing, I have already posted to say it fixes *one* problem
regardless of blame, uninstalling compiz solves all my issues Who said anything about intel cards? To reiterate the patch (actually 1 less patch in xorg) doesn't solve *ALL* problems I'm having with compiz with an nvidia card Disabling or uninstalling compiz *does* I care not whos "fault" it is or the politics compiz+xorg+nvidia glx is NOT production ready Ralf Nieuwenhuijsen wrote: > Maybe I am missing the point .. > > 1) Compiz is not on by default for NVidia > > But if you own an Nvidia card, then there is no compiz by default! > Why do people insist on claiming that there is? > > You are M-A-N-U-A-L-L-Y installing an U-N-S-U-P-P-O-R-T-E-D driver. > After which compiz is enabled by default, because the driver _claims_ it > supports 3d. > Unfortunately this driver is incompatible with the particular XServer of > Gutsy, hence the driver crashes. > If this is not fixed before gutsy launch, i'm pretty sure nvidia will be on > the blacklist and compiz will not be enabled for Nvidia users. > > No freaking reason to disable compiz for Intel videocards, because > Nvidia won't work.
