I rebooted my machine, and alas, the problem is still there; so sorry about my preceding message. I tried it with Desktop Effects turned off, and then there's no flickering anymore on fullscreen view with EOG. I guess the flickering must compiz related.
Furthermore: When Totem Movieplayer is put to fullscreen, this problem also occurs. But there's a difference with EOG now: the moment the button bars are finished fading out, the flickering stops and it is possible to watch movie fairly normal - just until you hit the mouse/touchpad and the bars start fading/flickering-in. -- screen starts flickering in EOG when fullscreen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/149615 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
