The issue has always existed. But with such a sharp edge between smooth and stuttering any slightest change in the GUI can push it over the edge. Also a little annoyingly, as we optimize more code it can sometimes make the problem *worse* as the GPU becomes less loaded and less likely to up-clock to smoothness.
Triple buffering is really the only solution that works with all drivers. Although sometimes you can tweak the graphics driver to change its clock scaling behaviour, I don't know if there's a more elegant workaround possible for Intel. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1937127 Title: Gnome-shell animations smoother when external monitor is connected To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1937127/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
