Aaagh, apparently this isn't completely fixed for me, either. Sorry I was so slow to respond. Using a fully up-to-date Lucid, I run into this bug occasionally. It isn't noticeable at startup (at least it hasn't been yet), but twice so far today I've had to switch Compiz off (or restart) because the graphics had become unresponsive enough to make the system unusable.
I'm not entirely sure what triggers the system to go from functional -> painful. Both times that this happened today, I first noticed it when I received a new email, which turns the messaging menu green and triggers a notification. Maybe one of these graphical events is related Anyway, I'm reopening for now. Please let me know if there's anything else I can do to help narrow this down. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Released => Confirmed -- [RV515] System unusable with Compiz due to extremely slow redrawing (of menus, window movements, selections...) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/559170 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ 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
