Thanks Sam, I found a list at commun...@lists.compiz-fusion.org, is that the correct one or just another stray? Also FYI, the "Team" link on the compiz site goes to 404. (Now I know the shake-up wasn't that bad...:-) I'll test with blur and see if the nvidia downclocking "feature" is catching me when I get to the office. That seems likely though. On my Arch Linux box where 8.2 works great, I have an 8800 GT that seems stuck in full-power mode. If I shut the box down and let it cool for a few hours, then restart, card fan speed is fine for a few hours, then the fan speed goes back through the roof. Temps are not the problem. CPU temps never get above 38 deg. C, drive temps are: 05:40 archangel:~> hdtemp /dev/sda: ST3500630AS: 35°C /dev/sdc: ST3500630AS: 40°C /dev/sdb: ST3750330AS: 37°C /dev/sdd: ST3750330AS: 38°C GPU temp reports 67 deg C, and case ambient (reported by the nvidia card is at 50 c.) My guess says it looks like an nvidia driver temp reporting issue there. But there isn't a bit of delay in compiz and glxgears frame rates show greater than 10K fps. If on opensuse downclocking *is* the case, "Irony" wins. It will be a case of (1) With compiz, my card downclocks on opensuse until it is asleep, (2) without opensuse, it sounds like a jet engine preparing for takeoff. And with ATI, if downclocking doesn't work, you can fry eggs on my laptop's palm rest. Go figure... (I wish they would just opensource the drivers so competent programmers could fix the mess.) Thanks for your help. You guys keep up the great work. 8.2 is really a fine piece of code. I can't wait until 9 beta. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
