Package: libcairo2 Version: 1.8.10-6 Severity: important When used together with NVidia drivers (confirmed with all NVidia drivers from the 260.x.x and 270.x series) libcairo2 from unstable (Version: 1.10.2-4) makes the desktop environment (latest GNOME from unstable) very slow and unresponsiver. For example when i try to maximize a minimized Rhythmbox window, the window appers blank and it takes several seconds for the contents of the window to draw.
At first i thought that this was a NVidia problem but i found out that downgrading libcairo2 to the version in testing (Version: 1.8.10-6) solves the problem. I've tried all of the NVidia drivers from the 260.x.x and 270.x series of drivers and the problem was solved only after i downgraded libcairo2. Unfortunately i couldn't try with the older 195.x.x and 256.x.x series of drivers because they don't support xserver 1.9 which has come to unstable. My system is Debian Unstable, kernel 2.6.37-2-amd64, GNOME, NVidia drivers 270.29 on a Thinkpad T61 laptop with Intel Core 2 Duo T9300, NVidia Quadro NVS 140m and 4GB RAM. To reproduce the bug - install libcairo2 from Unstable with any of the 260.x.x or 270.x series of the NVidia drivers To solve - downgrade libcairo2 to version 1.8.10-6 from Testing Best regards, Alexander Godumov -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.37-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=bg_BG.utf8, LC_CTYPE=bg_BG.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages libcairo2 depends on: ii libc6 2.11.2-13 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libfontconfig1 2.8.0-2.1 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.4.4-1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libpixman-1-0 0.21.4-2 pixel-manipulation library for X a ii libpng12-0 1.2.44-1 PNG library - runtime ii libx11-6 2:1.4.1-5 X11 client-side library ii libxcb-render-util0 0.3.6-1 utility libraries for X C Binding ii libxcb-render0 1.7-2 X C Binding, render extension ii libxcb1 1.7-2 X C Binding ii libxrender1 1:0.9.6-1 X Rendering Extension client libra ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime libcairo2 recommends no packages. libcairo2 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
