I applied the patch #778727 on ubuntu 11.04 64-bit. It does fix the memory leak problem (metacity used to consume ~4GB of mem while with the patch never exceeds 5MB). However, it introduces a new problem. Alt-tab functionality to switch between processes is now broken. Every time I press Alt-tab it seems as if it redraws the windows and leaves me in the same one.
Interestingly, if I have two terminals and press alt-tab continuously the terminals are moving downwards. -Regards -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/774740 Title: Huge memory leak in metacity To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/metacity/+bug/774740/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
