[Bug 456637] Re: Please consider turning powermizer OFF

2009-10-26 Thread NRD
Wanted to add a me too - I've been experiencing frequent artifacts on
screen leading to eventual system instability. I've been running for 22h
without one hiccup since I forced the Nvidia Powermizer to performance
mode. It seems that before the 190 series drivers the only way to do
this is to use srikumar's method above, however in the newer drivers
(190 series) there is an option in Nvidia-settings to change the
Powermizer settings. It would be great if we could include this as an
option in the nvidia-settings for drivers prior to the 190 series.
Nvidia must have included that option for good reason, so it only seems
logical that it should also be included in previous versions. I honestly
believe this would solve alot of issues that people are having running
the latest NVidia drivers from the repo's 185.18.36.

[Bug 446611] Re: nvidia compiz scrolling items rendering errors

2009-10-24 Thread NRD
I notice the same behaviour running nvidia 185 driver with compiz
enabled in Opera web browser. Scrolling further down the page to clear
the gap off the screen and returning back to the same spot seems make
the blank area disappear. I've also had X lock on occasion when I scroll
quickly down a page. Sometimes X recovers, other times it locks up hard
and I have to alt+sysrq+K to restart it.

[Bug 153204] Re: [MASTER] Applications are flickering/flashing in full screen mode

2009-10-12 Thread NRD
I recently ran into this bug with my nvidia 185.18.36 driver for my GTX
260 running an up-to-date copy of Ubuntu Karmic. while finding a
workaround to enabling fullscreen Youtube videos with opera and Firefox.

The fix states to uncheck the 'undirect fullscreen windows' option,
which did indeed work. However this created some horribly choppy
behaviour in Wolfenstein:Enemy Territory. So as a benchmark I would like
to suggest it, the game itself doesn't display a loss in FPS, but you
will notice objects 'jumping' when you move around the map.

For the time being I've rechecked the option in compiz, which fixes the
jumping in ET but I do miss my fullscreen Youtube vids.
