Daniel, Thank you for your excellent work! Im using your ppa in Ocelot and I cant believe how buttery smooth my windows are moving now! The last time I remeber seeing them so smooth was on my Maverick install. Using fglrx with HD4200. This is kind of a noobish question but the fixes are improving the performance of compiz in general right? Not just when moving windows?

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 763005] Re: Compiz's Sync to Vblank makes display stutter/slow with fglrx
Sorry, I don't see the fix lined up for any official ubuntu updates yet. But it is definitely in compiz 0.9.7 which should go into Ubuntu 12.04. You can try the fix out on Ubuntu 11.10 using ppa:vanvugt/compiz: https://launchpad.net/~vanvugt/+archive/compiz P.S. It appears I only published the fix in August. So that's 5 months ago. But still far too long, I agree. ** Project changed: compiz = compiz-core ** Changed in: compiz-core Importance: Undecided = High ** Changed in: compiz-core Milestone: None = 0.9.7.0 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/763005 Title: Compiz's Sync to Vblank makes display stutter/slow with fglrx To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz-core/+bug/763005/+subscriptions ___ 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 763005] Re: Compiz's Sync to Vblank makes display stutter/slow with fglrx
FYI, the fix was proposed and accepted for oneiric back in November. But the fix somehow got lost since then and never actually merged into any ubuntu or oneiric branches. Sorry I didn't realize the merge was bungled until now, because I'm using the fix in ppa:vanvugt/compiz. ** Branch unlinked: lp:~vanvugt/ubuntu/oneiric/compiz/fix-763005-oneiric -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/763005 Title: Compiz's Sync to Vblank makes display stutter/slow with fglrx To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz-core/+bug/763005/+subscriptions ___ 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

Sorry, but publishing PPA packages for precise would unlikely be worth the effort. I fully expect precise will have compiz 0.9.7 within a month, which would supersede a PPA.
