I don't see why this bug was marked as invalid, as desktop effects clearly stopped working, as has been confirmed by several other users.
Bryce - perhaps you misunderstood my original report - the problem is not with the desktop effects functionality check itself - the point is that desktop effects worked just fine on the same hardware with Maverick up to the moment it was upgraded to Natty, after which it broke to the point that it cannot be turned on at all (because it's buggy and enters some infinite loop somewhere hogging up 100% cpu, which is why the functionality check rightfully disables it). That being said, I was just about to try to confirm it's the Blur effect that triggers the bug, when I found that the effects are now working - probably since I upgraded to KDE 4.6.4 from the Kubuntu PPA a few days ago (at least that's my best guess as to what changed, since I don't recall seeing any other standard updates that might relate to this - but I might be wrong). If anyone else affected by this bug feels like trying to upgrade to KDE 4.6.4 and confirming whether this fixes the issue, that would be nice. In any case, I don't think this bug should be marked as fixed until the fix is backported to the official repos. It certainly should not be marked invalid, in any case. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/774207 Title: [Natty Intel 945GME] No desktop effects (kwin 100% cpu) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/774207/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
