Hi guys,
Just wanted to mention that I installed ubuntu netbook 10.10 (meerkat?)
in my wife's Asus Eee 1000HE and Unity was also slow and unstable.
Inserting CLUTTER_VBLANK=none in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/10unity-quirks
solved the problem, now Unity is snappy and shows a more consistent
behavior.
Alright, xserver-xorg-driver-intel for GMA 950:
2.12 3D performance is crippled unless you monitor your GPU with intel_gpu_top,
this would affect compiz/gears/unity anything 3D, this is the driver in maverick
2.13 this driver doesn't work currently on GMA 950, I filed a bug upstream
2.11: 3D
here is the gma 950 running metacity
jer...@jubuntu:~$ glxgears
Running synchronized to the vertical refresh. The framerate should be
approximately the same as the monitor refresh rate.
87 frames in 5.0 seconds = 17.298 FPS
158 frames in 5.0 seconds = 31.352 FPS
69 frames in 5.1 seconds = 13.571
I don't think this is a Unity bug. I think this is a problem with the
Intel xorg driver. Using normal gnome/metacity on a GMA 950 based
computer, running glxgears gives dodgy results. Start intel_gpu_top in
an xterm, re-run glxgears, and you get 60 fps solid.
Unity/Compiz/etc/etc will probably
The same on Compaq 5610b

Hello, today I decided to play with some netbook OSes.
First I installed MeeGO - good speed, actually really good, the screen layout
is a bit strange but looks nice.
Than I decided to try ubuntu 10.10 netbook version. OMG this thing is
impossible to use!
The apps work with good speed once
Okay, some more info - more usefull ;)
update-apt-xapi gets up to 99% cpu and stays like this for long periods,
but this is not the problem because this happens only occasionaly
The main problem seems to be the mutter app which is unoptimized. Everytime I
launch something mutter starts to eat
I finally upgraded, telling the update process to substitute old conf
files. On my hardware, Unity is working --- I can't say it is snappy,
but it works at an acceptable speed. More data:
Asus eeePC 1005PE with 1Gbyte RAM, video:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation N10 Family
I have also this same problem and I can fully agree with post #14. I
also installed installed maximus, go-home-applet and window-picker
applet and netbook-launcher-efl (didn't find netbook-remix-efl, not even
sure what it does, maybe those are the same?) and 2D netbook interface
looks and works
Just to specify a bit more about the comment #62: for me, the only thing
that is really painfully slow is the Application launcher (from 10 to
30 seconds to show). By the way, is it possible to configure it so that
it stays put after launching the application? This could reduce the pain
(launch it
I can also attest to unity running extremely slow on both a mini 9 and a
mini 10v

According to Didier Roche from Ubuntu Desktop Experience team the compiz

I think this (not backporting) is most unfortunate; basically because it
will not expose the future solution to a very big testing bed which
would be very useful in order to not repeat the failure we're seeing
now.
On the other hand, which is the suggested path for 10.04 users with this
problem?
10.10 desktop works fine. If 10.10 netbook won't be fixed, you should
remove the download temporarily (until 11.04), because in its current
state, it's really a pain to use.

Unfortunately, we also can't forward-port the 10.04 interface to 10.10.
So options are:
- stick on 10.04 LTS
- use a USB key to test the 10.10 interface on your hardware
- wait for 11.04

It's really sad to see this bug, especially with the Unity vs Gnome-Shell
thing. I installed Ubuntu Netbook on my EeeBox B202, and it's unusable. It's
really slow and I can't click on the icons through vnc (vino).
Is it really the future of Ubuntu? IMO, It wasn't ready for prime time.

210-1032CL and Acer Aspire One AO532h. Both have Intel Atom N450, 2GB

Unity runs like a slideshow, although once apps are launched, they seem
to work OK.
@Kevin:
when you are in the login screen, there is a drop-up menu (in 10.04 is on the
bottom of the screen, slightly at the right) where you can choose session.
Choose gnome session and voilá. The setting is remembered for further logins.
