In case this thread is used as a reference to graphic-driver related problems, I'll throw in mine as well: Besides a corrupted display (unreadable fonts/glitches on screen) that occurs after longer uptime and/or when using lots of memory (that also was present in Mageia1 / 2d desktop) as described here: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45092 I also experience problems playing back video in gnome-shell. The video is jerky/choppy/jumpy (the opposite of smooth). I.e. when there is a pan in the video (camera moves in a smooth motion), the video jumps. Instead of playing back the frames as * * * * * * * * * it is more like **** * * *** * * As with the previous problem, it gets worse the longer the machine is running (I didn't find out what exactly makes it worse). As a workaround one can restart gnome-shell (<alt>+<F2>, r, <enter>) While the problem is minimal after a fresh reboot or after restarting gnome-shell, it still occurs. No such problem in gnome-classic, i.e. in the 2d version of the desktop. There playback is always smooth, no matter how long the uptime was. Intel 965GM in Fujitsu Siemens Esprimo Mobile U9200 So I agree that something is fishy. But as long as I can just restart gnome-shell and get adequate (although not as-good-as-with-classic-gnome) playback.... ciao Christian
