And, if I start with compiz --replace cpp my cairo docks don't erase causing the special effects to leave pixel debris. Well, actually, with or without cpp the flickering windows don't erase, leaving substantially more pixel debris. And I should explain that the flickering is a 4 centimeter left right left right ... shift at , um, 20 Hz. Well, something like that.

Here it is not fixed yet. Fort my tests I disabled all additional plugins, but I still get the flickering, so I am still forced to use Unity2d here. The flickering frequency lowers and overall usability gets better when disabling the copy-to-texture plugin, but I have found no real workaround yet :( -- 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/963872 Title: Precise 12.04: experiencing mad flickering after the most recent Compiz update to version 0.9.7.2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/963872/+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

apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected precise third-party-packages ubuntu ** Description changed: Looks like every redraw anywhere on screen causes Compiz to clear and redraw the whole screen, so if I close everything the flickering will be triggered each second, because of the clock which updates every second Tried disabling all additional plugins (got plugins-extra and -unsupported package installed) - no effect. Tried changing workaround options, turning all of them on and off - no effect. Purged xorg edgers PPA (although I am on Intel GMA HD4500 and it never made problems) - no effect. Even removing Unity and starting just with Compiz does not make the flicker disappear, so I am quite sure the problem has something to do with the most recent Compiz update on Precise 12.04. The previous Compiz version was working without any flickering.
