[Bug 160311] Re: Resizing windows by grabbing window borders is difficult [please no more comments; patches welcome]

I know you said no more comments, but I just have to add one more. I don't actually know what Ubuntu's 'mission' is, but I expect it would like to become a popular desktop operating system that can be used and maintained by anyone. Well until you fix your processes I just can't see that even

dsa42 I've got to agree with you. The result of triage showing that this problem has been classified as low shows the Ubuntu team do not really understand how they should proceed to get Linux on the desktop. There is no (or little) commercial pressure for new features, but there should be

I hope it's not rejected. I understand the desire for the correct solution, and on the face of it you could argue that the fglrx driver should not have slow performance with the existing xorg code, however I think we should be pragmatic given the facts. Lots of people want to use the fglrx driver

madmed: Certainly sound like the same thing. I think the solution in comment #167 is probably the easiest way to fix the problem though it's not the way I finally got it fixed. Good luck with it! -- [M76] [ubuntu 9.04] slow unminimizing with ati card and desktop effects enabled

I can't beleive this was rejected for Karmic. If the driver is fglrx then do not do the other bug fix code that causes the performance problem! I installed the latest fglrx driver from ATI and applied the patch. PERFECT, all desktop effects worked perfectly and the speed was pretty good. But, of

Unfortunately I seem to already have the latest fglrx driver (2:8.600) so I suppose I will just wait until there's a new version available and hope it fixes the issue, I can live with the issue actually, still prefer it to switching off compositing ;-) -- [HD 3650] poor performance when using

I'm using Linux as my main operating system on my laptop for the first time, though I've used Linux on and off in various ways since 1997. So I was wondering how I can understand in greater detail the status of certain defects. To me this defect is quite high. I am a software engineer so I

Hi Robert, thanks for responding. Since I'm new to using Linux(Ubuntu) as my main desktop I don't understand the relationship between the various runtime libraries especially with regards to free and non-free components. You are saying that my configuration is basically not supported, since I'm
