I still see the screen refresh problems with compiz under nvidia 180.44, which makes sense, given that this is a protocol problem rather than a driver problem. However, the workaround in my compiz-fusion-plugins- main update (comment 234 with attached compiz-fusion-plugins- main_0.8.2-0ubuntu2.debdiff) still seems to be effective at preventing these problems. We should move forward with uploading this patch to main, so that users have the option of enabling this workaround.
** Description changed: + == Proposed compiz-fusion-plugins-main patch == + See comment 234 by Anders Kaseorg and attached compiz-fusion-plugins-main_0.8.2-0ubuntu2.debdiff. + + == Original report == Binary package hint: compiz I'm using latest compiz on intrepid. Since jockey-gtk does not work on my box (I already filed a bug), I manually installed nvidia-glx-177 and added the "driver → nvidia" line to xorg.conf. Now I seem to be having some screen refresh problems when using compiz: parts of the screen are refreshed, but others aren't. That means nautilus doesn't show files or folders until I move the cursor over them, firefox doesn't show webpages properly until I scroll down, and so on. Please, tell me if there is any additional info I can provide to find out the cause. -- Screen refresh problems with nvidia on intrepid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/269904 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
