http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=614208 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=614208#c0 Summary: Choppy effects with fglrx workaround enabled Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.3 Version: Factory Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Compiz AssignedTo: bnc-team-compiz@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: badshah400@gmail.com QAContact: ories@novell.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-GB; rv:1.9.1.9) Gecko/20100317 SUSE/3.5.9-0.1.1 Firefox/3.5.9 With the factory builds of compiz, the workaround "Fix screen updates in XGl with fglrx" has been enabled as a response to bug 597596. However it makes the effects decidedly slow and choppy on my system [Intel 945G]. The lazy desktop effect (problem with the screen not being updated/refreshed when desktop effect is enabled) which I too experienced throughout testing phases is now solved because of new Xorg/compiz packages even without enabling this workaround. It would be nice if this workaround can be disabled by default, as disabling it now causes no observable problems. Enabling it, on the other hand, causes choppy choppy effects.
