[Bug 164589] Re: Occasional screen-wide blink when using opengl apps (compiz also) and Nvidia cards

2008-02-19 Thread Kevin McGuinness
Setting NVreg_RegistryDwords=PerfLevelSrc=0x3322 appears to deactivate low-power mode when on AC power and enables it on batteries. This works as a decent workaround for me - i get rid of blinks and hangs on AC power while keeping reasonable battery life (at the expense of a chance hang) on DC.

I had this problem too. It apparently occurs if you have the MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME environment variable set (some apps need this, ex. those that use the Java SWT browser widget). The kompozer startup script looks for a run-mozilla.sh script in the directory specified by MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME if it is set.

I agree the bug still exists, but there is not much that can be done by the community - the driver is closed source so nvidia need to patch it themselves. Unfortunately, nvidia seem to be ignoring bug reports on this issue. If you have time, file a bug report with nvidia - perhaps if they get
