This bug is not a duplicate of bug 988079. It appears with compiz even if the unity plugin is deactivated. The only workaround is to temporary unredirect fullscreen windows when starting a game. (thank you daniel for the hint)
I want to add that the same problem appears even if I don't start the game in fullscreen mod. I get a ~20% framedrop but, what is much worse for the gaming experience, the framerate is very uneven. Also tearinglike artifact appears and vsync doesn't effect it. As I mentioned before, this bug is a regression since it appeared with Ubuntu 12.04 and is still present in 12.10. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/964788 Title: bad gaming performance when running compiz (nvida gt-240) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/964788/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
