This was not brought up at nvnews because it was not originally a Binary
Blob issue. Whatever was changed in xorg to fix this apparently
requires a driver fix too.
At any rate, I tested my ATI box and the results were as one might
predict:
Radeon driver + Compiz: Works
FGLRX driver + Compix: Doe
My testing results:
Intel with Compiz Enabled: Works
Nvidia Blob with Compiz: Still Broken
My wife is using the TV so I cannot test my HTPC with fglrx yet to see
the status there.
Regardless, nobody has every investigated or stated why this worked for
all drivers, open or not, in 8.10. At any r
The reports that it's working on Nouveau make it an invalid test case,
because the Ubuntu Nouveau drivers do not include Gallium which is
required to make Compiz work. Remote Desktop works fine with Compiz
disabled. The issue here is only with Remote Desktop + Compiz.
But to make you feel better
Comment #141 confirmed this is a bug with Intel drivers. So this is not
limited to binary blobs.
And the reason there are so many comments on this bug is because
developers have ignored this bug and instead left the community to fend
for itself and come up with half baked (if well intentioned) fi
Using Nouveau does _NOT_ fix this bug, Nouveau does not support Compiz.
Can a developer PLEASE chime in on this? This worked in 8.10 and has
been broken since. We were told it would be fixed with Lucid and, a
month away from Lucid's release, it's still not fixed. Could someone
please at least s
This has nothing to do with closed source drivers. This bug only occurs
with Compiz enables, which the Nouveau drivers do not support, so they
are an invalid test case.
As stated before in this bug numerous times, this worked fine in 8.10
with all closed source drivers that supported Compiz. The
This bug was not fixed in either Jaunty or Karmic. From the upstream
reports it hasn't been fixed upstream either, so it will probably not be
fixed in Lucid either. The only true fix/workaround is to reinstall
Intrepid which is the last version which had a working VNC + Active
Compiz integration.
