[Bug 254934] Re: screen becomes twisted when opening firefox 3 browser after using compiz fusion
On opening Thunderbird today, I realised that it affects this program as well. Can it have something to do with... XUL maybe? -- screen becomes twisted when opening firefox 3 browser after using compiz fusion https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/254934 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 254934] Re: screen becomes twisted when opening firefox 3 browser after using compiz fusion
It also happens in 8.10 on my Eee 1000, which has an Intel GMA950 as opposed to the 701's GMA900. I hadn't realised that compiz caused it, but Jngoi is right; I just tried opening Firefox with and without compiz enabled several times. It happened zero times with compiz disabled, and all the times it was enabled. I've attached a screenshot to illustrate the problem. It doesn't seem to do any harm (noticeably low performance unusual even for netbooks and the like), but it just looks weird, and having had a computer that did it when it was about to freeze completely, I find it rather disconcerting. ;-) ** Attachment added: Screenshot-1.png http://launchpadlibrarian.net/24413179/Screenshot-1.png -- screen becomes twisted when opening firefox 3 browser after using compiz fusion https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/254934 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 281683] Re: Incorrect partition creation when on an SSD (EXT3 instead of EXT2)
I'm not sure that it would do anything but confuse the user, Dimitrios. You and I obviously know whether we have an SSD, but I don't think most people are aware of anything about their hard drive but the storage space -- I mean, 5400-RPM hard drives continue to exist and are even sold with Intel Core processors! If the user, who could also be one who'd scarcely even heard of netbooks, further reducing the likelihood that they have a clue about the difference between magnetic and flash- based hard drives, had to answer questions like that, they might stall and think Ubuntu is too technical. Especially if they were moving from Windows which just works... I don't have any better suggestions, though. -- Incorrect partition creation when on an SSD (EXT3 instead of EXT2) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/281683 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
