[Bug 729979] Re: [nvidia] Windows appear blank white
Hey All, Looking through some of the bug history, it seems this is specific to Nvidia and the proprietary driver. I'm thinking this is really a duplicate of bug #269904. In that bug, there is a patch provided by Nvidia that hopefully fixes that issue. At this time, we cannot get that patch into Compiz proper due to some silly licensing issue, but I have made a PPA that has the fix incorporated. This PPA has packages for Precise, Trusty, and Utopic. If anyone would like to test this out and report your results, please add https://launchpad.net/~townsend/+archive/compiz-nvidia- refresh-test and give it a try. I'm hoping that if we can get enough feedback that say this fixes the issue for many users, we can use that as leverage to get *something* done about getting the patch merged into Compiz.

Is this related? Steps to reproduce: 0. Alt-F2 1. Run 'unity --replace ' 3. All windows that were previously minimized are now 'empty' when restored. 4. Minimize and restore the window to see the contents again. Super-W puts on an interesting display (and loses track of minimized windows) after 'unity --replace'. Minimize/restore will bring them back to Super-W, however. Side note: Need 'unity --replace' often due to confounded compiz sucking down all the system memory sometimes.

Ubuntu 13.04 on a different computer; now I'm using noveau (or whatever it's called what comes by default with Ubuntu) instead of proprietary Nvidia drivers. Problem still there, but windows are now TRANSPARENT instead of black. It's not just switching windows, it's WHATEVER RANDOM WINDOW that is opened and given focus, including even popups (e.g. confirmation or error popups) and submenus. Examples: - in Gedit you hit Ctrl+H, and the Search and Replace window that pops up, at random times is transparent. - in Google Chrome you click on the menu button on the top-right corner: the submenu at random times is transparent - in Nautilus, you right-click on the background of a folder; the context menu is fine but when you choose a submenu item, the submenu comes up transparent (but it works if you know where to click blindly) All of these happen at random times, but when they start happening with a given application, they will usually keep happening systematically untill you close and relaunch that application.

Btw guys, I know the status is Fix Released, but I've managed to completely fix this issue by unchecking CCSM - Ubuntu Unity Plugin - Switcher - Show live previews of windows in the Switcher. On top of fixing the black window issue I was having (which, in addition to the methods mentioned above, was also easily recreated by minimizing a window and then clicking that window immediately with the mouse to reverse the animation... reproduced 8 out of 10 times), it also fixed the window content going blank upon minimizing. I saw a few other workarounds with other options, but specifically the Show live previews of windows in the Switcher option is what fixed the whole shebang for me. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/729979 Title: [nvidia] Windows appear blank white To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/729979/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I updated the description with the workaround instructions on how to reproduce. According to the related branches the apparent fix was merged into Compiz 0.9.8.

Use Nvidia 319.23 (xorg-edgers) with the Compiz experimental ppa in 13.04 (though I don't think this ppa is essential and sometimes it does break Unity, so I have stopped updating from it after a while) Here are how things stand on my system I) If all windows are non minimized, then no black window switching either with alt-tab or the shift switcher. 2) if some windows are minimized but there is only one isntance for such applications (e.g no two instances of evince for two pdf documents), then no black windows switching with alt-tab 3) if the minized windows (may have more than one instances of the same applications) restore to non maximized windows than no black windows using the alt-tab switcher. 4) Always get black windows with shift switcher if some applications are minimized (regardless of how many instances are in use) 5) Get black windows with alt-tab for applications with more than one instances in use and minimized AND only for those instances that restore to maximized windows. 6) One way to avoid ALL black windows would be to enable the scale addon in ccsm and use a hot corner to pick windows (i.e using Unity like Gnome Shell) There is no black window under any scenario. So, if I am switching Windows with the scale addon (like using gnome- shell) I am able to avoild black windows al together and even if I get a black window say in using alt-tab in scenario 5 moving the cursor to the hot corner to refocus the open black window would make it normal again. Since it doesn't look like this bug will be fixed this is the best I can do. By using mostly the hot corner I have restored normal work flow pretty much and haven't seen any black window for quite some time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/729979 Title: [nvidia] Windows appear blank white To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/729979/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 729979] Re: [nvidia] Windows appear blank white
@Felipe I watched your video, no sure which DE you are using, but I have never had the black window problem if I use the mouse to choose application from the launcher. The bug is triggered only when I use the alt-tab launcher to choose among applications that are already in use, and with raring it only happens when more than one instances of the same applications are in use. e.g If Firefox (one instance), vlc (one instance) and two instances of evenice (2 pdf documents) are in use and all minimized. Using the alt-tab launcher to choose either Firefox or Vlc doesn't result in black windows, but focusing on either instance of evince will. I have replaced the default window decorator with emerald but it doesn't make a difference. The only thing that works for me is to disable animation from ccsm, but that result in abrupt motion when opening closing maximizing and minimizing windows. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/729979 Title: [nvidia] Windows appear blank white To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/729979/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 729979] Re: [nvidia] Windows appear blank white
Hi there... Finally I got a solution: I installed emerald-0.9.5 from source this morning and the blank white windows are gone, focus-animation dodge is working fine, awesome! The further hard- software-configuration is like described in my post #152 as Configuration #3. To compile emerald-0.9.5 for ubuntu 12.04.1 I followed the description at http://handytutorial.com/install-emerald-in-ubuntu-12-04-12-10/;. The first attempt failed with make complaining missing dependencies. I found the fix at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/emerald/+bug/968112; in post #7, there is a further environment-variable to set before: 'export LIBS=-ldl -lm'. Great thanks to user MC Return! After that, the package built successfully (I used checkinstall instead of make install to get a installable package). I'm very happy to have emerald back in 12.04 and that the blank white windows are gone ;-) Thank you all out there for your great work and wish you a nice weekend... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/729979 Title: [nvidia] Windows appear blank white To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/729979/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@Escorates Did you actually install compiz after building it? Did you also build nux/bamf etc? Tried using unity-jhbuild? Generally a crash in the vtable func means an abi mismatch somewhere. Try running with --debug in order to see what symbols you are missing.

[Bug 729979] Re: [nvidia] Windows appear blank white
@a-hafner: Andi, I am happy that the instructions for installing Emerald worked for you as well, and I am happy to hear that your white windows are gone and that the dodge focus animation is working also 4 you... :) I am trying to convince the Ubuntu packaging/motu guys to continue packaging Emerald for modern Ubuntu (12.04, 12.10, 13.04), unfortunately I did not succeed with this task yet... :( So every user who wants Emerald to continue to live on their modern Ubuntu system currently has to do some unnecessary complicated actions to make that happen: For those interested in trying Emerald without having to compile from source, LP-user brainpower also maintains a PPA with .deb packages of Emerald for Precise and Quantal: https://launchpad.net/~brainpower/+archive/testing Both versions work on Raring as well, so if you are on raring simply download the .deb files, here for example the AMD64 builds for Quantal (also working on Raring): https://launchpad.net/~brainpower/+archive/testing/+build/3916940 P.S.: Credits for making Emerald compile again on 12.04+ go to brainpower as well, as he was the first to come up with a solution for fixing the compilation... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/729979 Title: [nvidia] Windows appear blank white To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/729979/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 729979] Re: [nvidia] Windows appear blank white
Hi everyone. Just another report of which configurations are working and which don't. But with these results, it seems for me to be an nvidia-driver issue, as the last two setups mainly differ in the OpenGL-driver (except in the cpu-architecture). - Configuration #1: Focus-Animation-Effect Dodge IS WORKING GREAT for me with the following setup: OS-Version: Ubuntu 12.10 Kernel-Version: Linux 3.5.0-22-generic (i686) (Virtual)Machine: VirtualBox 4.2.6 r82870 Desktop-Environment:Mate 1.4.2 Display-Server: X.Org Version 1.13.0 OpenGL-Driver: VMware Inc. Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe 2.1 Mesa 9.0 with direct rendering Compiz-Version: 0.9.8.6 - Configuration #2: Focus-Animation-Effect Dodge IS ALSO WORKING GREAT for me with the following setup: OS-Version: Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS Kernel-Version: 3.2.0-36-generic (i686) (Virtual)Machine: VirtualBox 4.2.6 r82870 Desktop-Environment:Mate 1.4.2 Display-Server: X.Org Version 1.11.3 OpenGL-Driver: Humper 2.1 Chromium 1.9 with direct rendering Compiz-Version: 0.9.7.12 - Configuration #3: Focus-Animation-Effect Dodge DOESN'T WORK for me (producing white windows) with the following setup: OS-Version: Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS Kernel-Version: 3.2.0-36-generic (x86_64) Machine:ASUS-Rampage III with Intel Core i7-930 with NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260 Desktop-Environment:Mate 1.4.2 Display-Server: X.Org Version 1.11.3 OpenGL-Driver: NVIDIA 304.64 with direct rendering Compiz-Version: 0.9.7.12 All other Compositing-Effects I've activated, and there are a lot of them ;-), are working great with both configurations, except the Focus Animations. - I've noticed, that the OpenGL-Driver in configuration #2 is running much fluently than that one of configuration #1 but both are working at least, in opposite of the nvidia-driver in configuration #3. I wasn't looking for further, but are there any recent setups with the nvidia-driver which are working with the focus-animation-effects out there? Any further ideas? This bug is really nagging me, although dodging windows are a gadget, but it's a nice one ;-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/729979 Title: [nvidia] Windows appear blank white To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/729979/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 729979] Re: [nvidia] Windows appear blank white
So, this bug has been driving me absolutely nuts. For me, alt-tabbing (using the dodge animation) caused the blanked screens (only in nautilus, oddly enough). Disabling the animation plugin has, so far, solved the problem. Sad to lose a bit of eye candy, but the cost was absolutely worth it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/729979 Title: [nvidia] Windows appear blank white To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/729979/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
