Public bug reported: Binary package hint: kdebase-workspace
Yesterday, without any warning, some of the graphics rendering operations on KDE 4.3 became incredibly slow. The two most noticeable are the desktop icons/folderview icons, and anything related to the Plasma panel and Kickoff. Mousing over the desktop icons shows obvious lag between when the icon selection background should appear and when it actually does. Also, the translucent selection rectangle, which was before liquid smooth throughout the entire range of travel, now becomes unusably slow if any icons are selected. Also, widgets in the Plasma panel (Quicklaunch, the K menu button, etc) now show quite a delay before they light up. In Kickoff, the selection indicator also lags significantly behind the mouse cursor. If you select an icon and try to move it, that lags too. Finally, the animated switching of panels inside Kickoff is slow and laggy. I did not update any relevant packages that might have caused this. I have an nVidia 8600m GT with the 185.18.10 drivers, but the problem occurs with any driver version. ** Affects: kdebase-workspace (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- [karmic] Some KDE graphics operations have suddenly become very laggy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/380553 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kdebase-workspace in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
