** Description changed: On my desktop with nvidia hardware, running xcompmgr with openbox I always noticed that when windows first appear (especially complex ones like Firefox/Thunderbird) you get a moment of either garbage or some old framebuffer after the wm brings the window up and before the app fills it. I'd always noticed by contrast that my much less powerful Intel- based laptop running 8.04 with Compiz was as smooth as butter. I saw this effect very occasionally, but generally performance was good. Having upgraded to the latest 8.10 on that laptop, I really notice that when opening Firefox or Thunderbird I get that same effect almost every time in quite a pronounced way. I tried to capture with xvidcap without success, but managed to grab photos of the effect, which are attached. + + [lspci] + 00:00.0 Host bridge [0600]: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/PM/GMS/910GML Express Processor to DRAM Controller [8086:2590] (rev 03) + Subsystem: Sony Corporation Device [104d:81b7] + 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller [8086:2592] (rev 03) + Subsystem: Sony Corporation Device [104d:81b8]
