tentatively marked as an xfwm4 bug. To make sure it is xfce related could you please try it under gnome as well besides kde? If it behaves well in gnome then upstream xfce can take a look. One other thing you could try is killall xfwm4;xfwm4 --compositor=off& in a terminal. If something in xfwm4 interacts badly with gimp it could be the compositing feature, I am not sure though.
** Changed in: xubuntu-meta (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: xubuntu-meta => xfwm4 -- After painting several fast strokes in gimp, whole desktop freezes, not reacting to any clicks for several seconds. https://launchpad.net/bugs/61424 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
