[Bug 1070275] Re: [fglrx] Unity flickering on window updates with fglrx and VBO enabled
Sorry folks, but as part of the bug clean up ahead of 16.04 I'm marking this as invalid because it affects an Ubuntu release which is now unsupported. If you can still recreate this bug in a supported release please do open a new bug and we can triage it for consideration in the 16.04 development cycle. ** Changed in: unity Status: Confirmed => Invalid ** Changed in: compiz (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid ** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1070275 Title: [fglrx] Unity flickering on window updates with fglrx and VBO enabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1070275/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1070275] Re: [fglrx] Unity flickering on window updates with fglrx and VBO enabled
I don't have any flickering/corruption with fglrx and VBO but the performance is terrible with that option enabled. Disabling VBO (that option only, not sync to vblank or anything else) makes unity/compiz a lot smoother. So obviously the fglrx driver has some problems with VBO (the radeon drivers works). 12.10 and 13.04 have the same problem. The hardware is a AMD E350/Radeon HD6310. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1070275 Title: [fglrx] Unity flickering on window updates with fglrx and VBO enabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/1070275/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Workaround: 1. Run Ubuntu Software Center 2. Install CompizConfig Settings Manager 3. Run CompizConfig Settings Manager (ccsm) 4. Click OpenGL 5.

Definately Vertex Buffer Object that solved it. I've still got Framebuffer and Buffer swapping still checked. Lighting [] Sync to VBlank [X] Texture Compression [] Framebuffer Object [X] Vertex Buffer Object [] Always use buffer swapping [X] Is my current setup, if I check the VBO option the flickers return. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1070275 Title: [fglrx] Unity flickering on window updates with fglrx and VBO enabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/1070275/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

John, Sorry to be a pain, but... are you sure it was toggling vertex_buffer_object that solved it?

When using the latest radeon driver it does not flicker, having said that though, the animations are not quite as existant as graphic update is so slow it'd be difficult to see when the flickering happens. ** Changed in: compiz (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New ** Changed in: fglrx-installer (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New ** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1070275 Title: [fglrx] Unity flickering on window updates with fglrx and VBO enabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/1070275/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
