Public bug reported: Its a bit of a strange bug, i think it might be related to the fact that i installed KDE 4.2 using the method discribed at http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-4.2 i.e. adding the custom reporatories.
The best way to describe this bug is by giving an example. Open LYX ( which uses the Qt libraries ) and open a file. Everything looks grand if you use the up and down arrows to navagate, it gets the hint to redisplay, but if you use the middle mouse button nothing moves! Well actually you can see the the blinking Text Cursor has moved to where it is expected to be by moving the middle mouse button but the rest of the text hasn't moved at all! To get the rest of the text to move you need to click into the text area before anything changes. And as the title of this bug says this only ever happens when compiz is turned on! If i go to System > Preferences > appearance > Visual Effects and set the effects to "NONE" then the problem has gone away. But of course i can't use any of the useful compiz stuff then in gnome ;) I've tried to disable the Window Decoration in Compiz cos i thought that would help but it leaves all of my windows without a title bar and it is impossible to do anything with. Anyone able to lend a hand in figuring out what exactly is wrong with this? Oh and i'm using Ubuntu 8.10 btw ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- qt applications have render update delay in gnome when compiz is enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/335803 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
