*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 96473 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/96473 I can confirm this bug - when I tried compiz on my gutsy system about one month ago, I was happy not having the black windows any more. I could open more than 20 konqueror windows without any problems. Now, after the recent updates in gutsy, the problem is back again. I tested compiz yesterday, and had black windows already after opening just 3 windows. In bug #139325, 256MB of video RAM are recommended - but my laptops graphics card, an NVIDIA quadro NVS 110M _has_ 256MB of video RAM. -- compiz gives me black windows https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/125566 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 125566] Re: compiz gives me black windows
As this bug seems to be considered unimportant can I explain further? I realise that there is the general black window problem because of Nvidia,, etc. However, this has recently got worse. For example, I was able to watch tv from my myth backend, have a number of windows open and everything was fine, Know, I cannot have my Konqueror maximised because I four tabs open in Firefox. I have nothing else open. There is something going on with the memory use that happened at about the time of my first report. -- compiz gives me black windows https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/125566 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 125566] Re: compiz gives me black windows
This is something a bit odd as up until yesterday with Gutsy this didn´t happen although it had previously in Feisty. Something changed as now it happens with only 2 or 3 windows open so making the whole compiz desktop experience pointless. I would suggest that a recent change is eating video memory, meaning we are running out so much quicker than before. -- compiz gives me black windows https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/125566 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This is a problem with the nvidia driver. If you close some windows the problem will go away.
