I have used 4 of my 5 Linux computers with VNC, nvidia-restricted, and Compiz since Feisty without a single hiccup.
This is a regression to when I used Edgy, Compiz/Beryl and Intel 810 graphics (that's almost 3 YEARS!) Back then the solution to everything was 'disable Compiz.' My ENTIRE NETWORK as well as my ability to assist friends/family remotely (VNC over SSH --the workarounds are useless here) is affected by this bug. I use the Compiz cube, not for eye-candy but because I'm more productive with an application on each workspace - roll the mouse wheel, I'm where I want to be. Linux has affected my way of computing - for the better- this bug has disabled much of what I have come to expect for the last 3 years. Three months is too long to wait for a genuine fix for something that worked for so long. This is a serious regression, it breaks some of the very things that set Linux apart and that make it more useful than what we used to suffer with. -- Compiz / vnc screen refresh with nvidia-restricted driver/VirtualBox/ATI fglrx driver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/353126 You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
