I have the same flicker problem, (linux mint 17 + mate 64bits, so based on ubuntu 14.04) with a gtx750ti 340.32 driver with compiz Compiz 0.9.11.2 from the ubuntu 14.04 standard packages but I didn't install any patch.
For me what seems to do the trick, was enabling: Utility > Workarounds > Fix screen ypdates in XGL with fglrx & Utility > Workarounds > Force synchronization between X and GLX (which is said to be good for nvidia cards!) I installed the patch and I see it adds a General > OpenGL > X11 Sync objects! So I was on the right track it seems ;) Anyway, thank you very much for the PPA, the patch seems to fix the flickering for good. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1288747 Title: [334] Parts of the UI randomly flicker when moving the mouse To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/1288747/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : compiz@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
