Aaron, Thank you for your heads up. I made an error in my comment #69 above. What I wanted to say was that nvidia-current worked very fluently with xserver 1.8 regarding any scrolling. This is true for both Lucid Lynx (10.04) and Maverick Merkaat (10.10).
And once again, immediately after upgrading my maverick setup to xserver 1.9 branch (rc5 at that time), I noticed severe sluggisshness, especially with the application "Synaptic". However, the browsers like Chromium and Firefox and on the other hand, word processor like Openoffice.org writer do not seem to suffer this kind of sluggisshness. I experienced this sluggisshness both with the drivers nvidia-current_256.44 and 256.52. I have not tested this with v. 256.53 as this is not yet available as a deb package. I hope Alberto Milone is working on that one. I will not argue with you, Aaron, about what you meant to say, but these are your exact words (taken from the bug #623399, comment #5): "If scrolling using the same driver but a different X server shows different performance, it's highly likely that the regression is in the X server and not the driver." As you said "highly likely", it made me think you really believe this to be true. Well now you have corrected this and that is it. I have no reason not to believe you. Thank You once again. -- nVidia card : X won't start since 1.9 update, no screens found https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/616023 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ 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
