Hello all I felt that Gutsy was working good on my workstation at home now so I decided to switch from Feisty also on my laptop (hp hc8430 + ati x1600). Big mistake :)
I had very bad performance and saw very high CPU usage from the Xgl-process. This I reported as bug 146285[1]. I then discovered that I got the problem after disabling desktop effects. I tried to enable them and sure enough, the CPU usage got back to normal and the system felt fast again! Got some other graphic problems though which I eventually solved using my Feisty xorg.conf instead of the one Gutsy had generated. I think this will be something most users of the mobile ATI graphics card will see so it could be a big issue. Could other users with similar setup and non-tweaked xorg.conf's please respond to this to confirm if you experience the same problems or not? 1. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xgl/+bug/146285 Rgds, Thomas Novin -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
