I have just tested this issue and made a recording. It's very interesting. I started a stopwatch and just made small circular mouse movements. I noted that almost every 10 seconds (around the 8 second mark) the mouse will get stuck, as I described, but the stopwatch clock ALSO gets stuck. Then I played the recording back and could clearly see the stopping clock. But during the recording I was not moving my mouse and only the recording would show the freeze. Then I tried moving my mouse at the same the recording is playing. I was clearly able to see that every 10 seconds (around the 3 second mark) the recording would freeze, and then again at 8 seconds the actual recording will freeze as well. But that was expected as that was whatI was recording.
So in conclusion it seems that if you are moving your mouse about almost every 10 seconds the entire screen freezes for a microsecond, this is easily repeatable as described above. Also tried it while playing a youtube video. Play video, not moving mouse, all fine, move mouse around and every 10 seconds video lags. Although it doesn't seem like the trigger of the timer is the start of the mouse moving. I could be typing something and want to move the mouse and immediately it gets stuck. It's as if there is a background process thats constantly running and at regular intervals causes if freeze only if the mouse happens to move at that time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/926714 Title: continuous jerky mouse movements while using nouveau driver in 12.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-nouveau/+bug/926714/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
