Public bug reported: Binary package hint: compiz
I'm testing gutsy d-i i386 20071009.1 on a few-years-old laptop with a 40G hard disk. After the install (whole disk, LVM, crypto) is completed I found that: When I ask it to open an application, while it's thinking about it, the mouse pointer jitters. This happens only if I move the mouse while the machine is thinking about the new application. It is as if the mouse, as I move it, sporadically and very temporarily leaps back to the location it had a few instants previously. The effect seems to happen whenever I put the machine under a bit of strain by asking it to do something and then expect to use the mouse while it's thinking. This is very distracting and I originally thought it was some kind of hardware problem however it goes away if I turn off compiz, no matter how hard I ask the machine to work. ** Affects: metacity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- pointer jitters while applications are opening https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/151314 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for metacity in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
