The performance when using compiz is very poor. Everything in motion (e.g. moving windows, rotating desktop cube, etc.) causes heavy flickering of the window/screen. Refresh rates are also extremely poor making animation effects look choppy and dysfunctional. The attached screenshot taken while moving the YaST control centre around shows this to an extent. The following is the configuration for my graphics chipset 16: PCI 02.0: 0300 VGA compatible controller (VGA) [Created at pci.318] Unique ID: _Znp.U+waTKLi8tD SysFS ID: /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0 SysFS BusID: 0000:00:02.0 Hardware Class: graphics card Model: "Intel 945G" Vendor: pci 0x8086 "Intel Corporation" Device: pci 0x2772 "945G" SubVendor: pci 0x103c "Hewlett-Packard Company" SubDevice: pci 0x3022 Revision: 0x02 Driver: "i915" Driver Modules: "drm" Memory Range: 0xe2000000-0xe207ffff (rw,non-prefetchable) I/O Ports: 0xc000-0xc007 (rw) Memory Range: 0xd0000000-0xdfffffff (ro,non-prefetchable) Memory Range: 0xe2080000-0xe20bffff (rw,non-prefetchable) IRQ: 16 (281448 events) I/O Ports: 0x3c0-0x3df (rw) Module Alias: "pci:v00008086d00002772sv0000103Csd00003022bc03sc00i00" Driver Info #0: XFree86 v4 Server Module: intel Driver Info #1: XFree86 v4 Server Module: intel 3D Support: yes Extensions: dri Config Status: cfg=no, avail=yes, need=no, active=unknown Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Enable desktop effects 2.Make windows move, or rotate desktop cube -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

If so, then this would be a regression, most likely in the graphic driver. If this did not work on older releases neither, then I'd be inclined to blacklist this chip for compiz. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=656060 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=656060#c4 --- Comment #4 from Martin Seidler 2010-11-29 20:03:18 UTC --- I get the same special effect if I change to an other workspace. But not with moving a window - I just cannot move any window with desktop effects on. With openSUSE 11.4 Factory 2.6.37-rc3-git1-6 GNOME 2.32.1 Pentium M 740 Intel 915GM 1400x1050 (But before that sliced windows when moving - since Milestone 3 and since I was able to turn the desktop effects on at all). And by the way - every time I tuned desktop effects off - they were tuned on again after I booted. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=656060 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=656060#c5 --- Comment #5 from Martin Seidler 2010-12-16 12:45:07 UTC --- (In reply to comment #4) openSUSE 11.4 factory-tested (now saying it is "Milestone 5" - until Milestone 3 updated to factory or factory-tested) Linux 2.6.37-rc5-12-desktop GNOME 2.32.1 i686 i386 The windows are moving again (not only until the update form today) but the sliced moving windows effect stays on.

And by the way - every time I tuned desktop effects off - they were tuned on again after I booted. I opened an additional bugreport for that:
