Bug#469132: xfterm4: Slower desktops switching when an xfterm4 is opened
Package: xfce4-utils Version: 4.4.2-4 Severity: normal Hi all! I notice that when I have an opened xfterm4 in desktop 1 (for example), when I switch to this desktop from the desktop 2 (fro example too), it takes nearly 2 seconds before the desktop appears. If I reduce xfterm4 or close it, the delay disappears. I tried with a fresh .config directory, same problem. Here is my terminalrc: $ cat .config/Terminal/terminalrc [Configuration] AccelNewTab=Controlt AccelNewWindow=controlshiftn AccelDetachTab=controlshiftd AccelCloseTab=controlshiftw AccelCloseWindow=controlshiftq AccelCopy=controlshiftc AccelPaste=controlshiftv AccelEditHelpers=Désactivé(e) AccelPreferences=Désactivé(e) AccelShowMenubar=Désactivé(e) AccelShowToolbars=Désactivé(e) AccelShowBorders=Désactivé(e) AccelFullscreen=F11 AccelSetTitle=Désactivé(e) AccelReset=Désactivé(e) AccelResetAndClear=Désactivé(e) AccelPrevTab=controlPage_Up AccelNextTab=controlPage_Down AccelSwitchToTab1=Alt1 AccelSwitchToTab2=Alt2 AccelSwitchToTab3=Alt3 AccelSwitchToTab4=Alt4 AccelSwitchToTab5=Alt5 AccelSwitchToTab6=Alt6 AccelSwitchToTab7=Alt7 AccelSwitchToTab8=Alt8 AccelSwitchToTab9=Alt9 AccelContents=F1 BackgroundMode=TERMINAL_BACKGROUND_SOLID BackgroundImageFile= BackgroundImageStyle=TERMINAL_BACKGROUND_STYLE_TILED BackgroundDarkness=0,50 BindingBackspace=TERMINAL_ERASE_BINDING_AUTO BindingDelete=TERMINAL_ERASE_BINDING_AUTO ColorForeground=White ColorBackground=Black ColorCursor=Green ColorSelection=White ColorSelectionUseDefault=TRUE ColorPalette1=# ColorPalette2=# ColorPalette3=# ColorPalette4=# ColorPalette5=# ColorPalette6=# ColorPalette7=# ColorPalette8=# ColorPalette9=# ColorPalette10=# ColorPalette11=# ColorPalette12=# ColorPalette13=# ColorPalette14=# ColorPalette15=# ColorPalette16=# CommandUpdateRecords=TRUE CommandLoginShell=FALSE FontAllowBold=TRUE FontAntiAlias=FALSE FontName=DejaVu Sans Mono 9 MiscAlwaysShowTabs=FALSE MiscBell=FALSE MiscBordersDefault=TRUE MiscCursorBlinks=FALSE MiscDefaultGeometry=80x24 MiscInheritGeometry=FALSE MiscMenubarDefault=TRUE MiscMouseAutohide=FALSE MiscToolbarsDefault=FALSE MiscConfirmClose=TRUE MiscCycleTabs=TRUE MiscTabCloseButtons=TRUE MiscTabPosition=GTK_POS_TOP ScrollingBar=TERMINAL_SCROLLBAR_RIGHT ScrollingLines=1000 ScrollingOnOutput=TRUE ScrollingOnKeystroke=TRUE ShortcutsNoMenukey=FALSE ShortcutsNoMnemonics=FALSE TitleInitial=Terminal TitleMode=TERMINAL_TITLE_APPEND Term=xterm VteWorkaroundTitleBug=TRUE WordChars=-A-Za-z0-9,./?%#:_~ HelperWebbrowser=firefox HelperMailreader=mozilla-mailer MiscHighlightUrls=TRUE ScrollingSingleLine=TRUE I don't know what is the origin of this problem...

I guess you're facing #445323 Try to disable compositing in xorg.conf and report back. What X version are you using? What X drivers are you using?

OK, since I don't use any composite stuff, this workaround works for me. I'm curious about why *only* xfterm4 is trying to use composite since, I my case, I ask it to display a black background without any transparency... I don't notice this problem with other applications for the moment ;) Thanks to you, Yves-Alexis ^^ Yves-Alexis Perez wrote: On Mon, Mar 03, 2008 at 12:11:10PM +, KnuX wrote: About versions: ii nvidia-glx 169.09-1 NVIDIA binary Xorg driver ii xserver-xorg-core 2:1.4.1~git20080131-1 Xorg X server - core server ii xorg 1:7.3+10 X.Org X Window System ii xserver-xorg 1:7.3+10 Ok, another nvidia binary driver… I have not do anything about composite, but nvidia drivers might be in cause...
