[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 448678] Re: Karmic: ThunderbirdXorg hog CPU
Bryce: It seems the bug does not occur in Lucid any more, so I mark it Fix released. However, I've not tested it thouroughly because Thunar (Xubuntu file manager) is thoroughly broken in Lucid (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunar/+bug/520118 and http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6230) - I'll stay with Karmic for the moment. ** Bug watch added: Xfce Bugzilla #6230 http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6230 ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Fix Released -- Karmic: ThunderbirdXorg hog CPU https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/448678 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

so it seems like some bug in the radeon EXA code, intel works fine here. ** Package changed: xorg (Ubuntu) = xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu) -- Karmic: ThunderbirdXorg hog CPU https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/448678 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 448678] Re: Karmic: ThunderbirdXorg hog CPU
I am experiencing this problem on my home computer: Fresh install of 9.10 Karmic (GNOME), Athlon 2400+, 1GB DDR, Radeon All-In-Wonder 9600xt with Visual Effects turned off (None). Thunderbird is very sluggish, user interface is drawn slowly and there are 1-2 second delays before the interface responds when using any buttons or other elements. Network throughput seems to be OK, it's no faster or slower than usual to send or receive messages with attachments etc. I have another partition on this same computer with Ubuntu 9.04 but no problems with Thunderbird - it performs quickly and there are no delays or UI slowness. On my work computer: 3.00 GHz Intel C2D, 1GB, Intel integrated graphics (945 series I think?) with Visual Effects turned off (None), Ubuntu 9.10 upgrade from 9.04, I haven't noticed any problems although this is a much faster machine in general. I will attempt the Xorg.conf thing and post my results. Are there any log files etc. that I could post and would be helpful for diagnosing and fixing this problem? -- Karmic: ThunderbirdXorg hog CPU https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/448678 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 448678] Re: Karmic: ThunderbirdXorg hog CPU
After implementing Christoph's and jooloop's solution, Thunderbird's responsiveness has improved significantly. This seems to have done the trick for me. I agree with Rob and Martin about this being over the heads of many common users. I'm willing to provide any necessary information to help resolve this issue for others. -- Karmic: ThunderbirdXorg hog CPU https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/448678 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 448678] Re: Karmic: ThunderbirdXorg hog CPU
I just noticed that after making this change, Firefox has increased responsiveness now as well. I was noticing some brutal lags when scrolling websites (in particular Slashdot!) and that seems to have improved (it's not perfect but now it's usable). Those are some very useful settings it would seem! Perhaps they should be implemented for most users as well? -- Karmic: ThunderbirdXorg hog CPU https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/448678 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 448678] Re: Karmic: ThunderbirdXorg hog CPU
Does anyone know 1) if this is going to be fixed; or 2) how we let someone important know this should be fixed...? I mean, I can (and did, thx heaps jooloop) follow the instructions above, but how many people using Ubuntu can't use the command line, let alone CTRL+ALT+F1... How many people in the world would we like to be able to use Ubuntu without the requirement for them to know that? If this is to be an OS for the common (wo)man, then surely this kind of thing should be fixed quickly upon release? -- Karmic: ThunderbirdXorg hog CPU https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/448678 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

I totaly agree with you, Bob: this is not a fix a normal user could apply and therefore this should get fixed in the release.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 448678] Re: Karmic: ThunderbirdXorg hog CPU
Wild guess... the problem seems to be in wrong Xorg settings (at least the problem can be fixed by re-introducing a xorg.conf file with specific entries). ** Package changed: thunderbird (Ubuntu) = xorg (Ubuntu) -- Karmic: ThunderbirdXorg hog CPU https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/448678 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
