compiz (1:0.9.11.3+14.04.20150122-0ubuntu1) trusty; urgency=medium
[ James Jones ]
* Added support for GL_EXT_x11_sync_object OpenGL extension for Nvidia
based GPUs to avoid screen refresh
Got a colleague to test 1:0.9.11.3+14.04.20150122-0ubuntu1 and confirm
that the fix works. Once again, I am unpleasantly surprised at how much
work you offload onto someone who points out an obvious typing mistake
in a line of source code.
** Tags removed: verification-needed
** Tags added:
I no longer run a Trusty system myself - I run Utopic, which already
contains the fix (which I can and have confirmed). I have however added
a note onto the VirtualBox bug tickets, in which this was reported as a
bug in VirtualBox, asking the users to test the fixed Ubuntu package.

Although the original bug has been fixed, the screen blinks terribly if
the window is not active. The path is:
Open Windows 7 guest system in VirtualBox, full screen, on the right monitor.
It displays correctly in full screen mode.
Click anywhere on the LEFT screen, e.g. in Firefox.

Even after you close the VM, blinking artifacts remain on the right
screen. Turning off 3d acceleration in the VM does not affect the
issue.

You might want to try a recent test build of VirtualBox1. We are
reworking full-screen mode to use the official freedesktop/EWMH APIs and
having a hard time writing code which all the different window managers
like. The specifications leave quite a bit open to interpretation...

By the way, I am not (of course!) saying that it is a bug in VirtualBox.
Realistically there are probably equal chances of it being a problem
with VirtualBox, a problem with Unity or a misunderstanding between the
two.

I have tried VirtualBox-4.3.17-96212-Linux_amd64.run (both with Oracle
and extension pack and Guest Additions installed) with no luck. The
screen is still flickering. It is not 100% reproducible, but happens
very often.
I have seen a corresponding ticket in Oracle (#13410), but for

I had restarted the host machine again, and tested the test version of
VirtualBox 4.3.17 for the following two hours on a number of different
VMs, and havn't experienced the nasty flicker. (Ubuntu 14.10). It's been
apparently fixed. For reference, I use Intel HD 4000 as my graphic
card.
Btw,
Thank you. I wonder whether your flickering issue will stay fixed, as
I can't think why a reboot would make a difference for VirtualBox
(perhaps for Unity...) I suspect that the menu bar issue is because
this is a generic Linux and not a specific Ubuntu build, but I suggest
that that discussion

Any estimate as to how long this will take to get into Ubuntu, and which
versions it will get into? We have to know whether to provide a work-
around in our software.
