I said "in many cases", not all, it's a driver problem. But without test results on a large number of different cards, it's hard to tell. From the few test results on the wiki page (please keep bringing them on) it seems like some screensavers use a lot of CPU on all different cards, in which case we will certainly remove them from the standard selection.
There are many bits in graphic acceleration support, some hacks might try some obscure ones that are not used in the mainstream applications. I move this to the xscreensaver package since most screensaver hacks comes from the xscreensaver package, even though they are used by gnome- screensaver. ** Changed in: xscreensaver (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: gnome-screensaver => xscreensaver -- screensavers cause high CPU usage https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/174191 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
