There was a playable tetris game for the TI calculator like 20 years
ago.
But still someone has managed to have Gnome ship a version of that game
since 2007 that isn't even playable on 2011's supercomputers.
The culmination of social hacking!
Even Excel Tetris on an Arduino beats the crap out

Just played gnometris for the first time, and indeed with the Tango

That's still a problem to me, too. I'm using Xubuntu 9.04 on an Acer
Aspire One, and Gnometris quickly becomes virtually unplayable, even

I can confirm this bug on Ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope.
Apparently the game starts becoming more and more unresponsive with time.
Also the game can become responsive again when you fill a line.
So if you keep stacking blocks but don't fill any lines it will become less and
less responsive after a
To notice the unresponsiveness pile up some lines of blocks and keep using the
arrow-down key to lower blocks faster.
You will notice after a while that it will become a lot less responsive.

Gnometris allows you to change block themes. This issue appears when I
use the tango Tango Shaded theme. It doesn't happen when I use the
Plain theme. I have a fast cpu so it's not a cpu usage issue. Also
using top I was able to see that cpu usage stays low even when gnometris

The issue is that Gnometris is being very stupid about rendering - every
frame it's rendering every single svg brick separately. This is why it
gets slower with more bricks on the screen even when they're the same
color. If it did some sort of caching this likely wouldn't be an issue.

I find that the controls stop working all together and the game seems to

The change is not telling users what to do, it's changing the default

This really is embarrassing. When we tout how superior Linux is at

Just curious what the status of the fix is. Like everyone else, for me
the controls become sluggish after mere minutes of play. Changing to
the plain theme resolves this problem. So, will Plain be made the
default theme, or has some code been fixed such that the Tango Shaded
theme doesn't cause
after 6 level it's unresponsible and the screen dimmed.

Totally agree. I'm using 7,10 ubuntu with compiz on default settings. All tango

Confirmed. Game becomes unplayable (as described above) when Level = 5.
If I choose Plain Block Style under the Theme preferences, the game
returns to its normal, playable, self (thanks, François).
I'm running 7.10, desktop effects enabled. I've got a Radeon 9200se and
I'm using the 'ati' driver.
I still see the bug and its very annoying.
it seems to me as if the queue holding directional instructions for each piece
doesn't empty once the piece gets to the bottom but adds its instructions to
the new piece making it uncontrollable until the queue is cleared. for some
reason this doesn't
Same error in Ubuntu 7.10.

Have you tried changing the theme? I was having performance problems
with Gnometris (Gutsy version) on a slower machine and changed the block
style to plain. It's much more playable now.
In fact, it may be a good idea to make this the default.

That works great.
I thought I would add to this. After just installing ubuntu gutsy I
decided to try out some of the defualt games. The first game happened
to be gnometris. both with and without compiz the lag was visible, but
with compiz it was more visible at the lower levels. While playing at
high levels

This (or something very similar) happens when there are many blocks on the

The bug is a LOT easier to reproduce now that Gnometris levels have been
fixed. Start a new game somewhere between level 6 and 9. Try to move
the block from one side of the screen to the other - it is the exact
opposite of smooth, especially when changing directions. You'll likely
notice up to
heavy disk access?? Gnometris should never access the harddisk while
playing.
