I confirm that jooloop's fix (comment #12) works for me. If you want to test it, here are the steps I had to take (from Ubuntu 9.10, there is no more xorg.conf file by default*; you have to create it first): - log in on an old-fashioned terminal (alt-F1, user, password) - stop X: $ sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop - create a xorg.conf file: $ sudo Xorg -configure (it will be saved in your home directory) - open the new xorg.conf.new file (I did it in the GUI :-) - look for the graphics device section - add the MigrationHeuristic and the AccelMethod lines - copy only this section to an empty file; save/copy it as /etc/X11/xorg.conf - restart X: $ sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
My thunderbird is quick again! What can we do to have this be fixed for everyone? *) More information on xorg.conf: go to www.ubuntuforums.org and look for "xorg.conf" and "karmic", you'll find plenty of threads -- Karmic: Thunderbird&Xorg hog CPU https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/448678 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
