[Bug 353126] Re: Compiz / vnc screen refresh with nvidia-restricted driver/VirtualBox/ATI fglrx driver

 

I have used 4 of my 5 Linux computers with VNC, nvidia-restricted, and
Compiz since Feisty without a single hiccup.

This is a regression to when I used Edgy, Compiz/Beryl and Intel 810
graphics (that's almost 3 YEARS!)  Back then the solution to everything
was 'disable Compiz.'

My ENTIRE NETWORK as well as my ability to assist friends/family
remotely (VNC over SSH --the workarounds are useless here) is affected
by this bug.

I use the Compiz cube, not for eye-candy but because I'm more productive
with an application on each workspace - roll the mouse wheel, I'm where
I want to be.  Linux has affected my way of computing - for the better-
this bug has disabled much of what I have come to expect for the last 3
years.

 Three months is too long to wait for a genuine fix for something that
worked for so long.  This is a serious regression, it breaks some of the
very things that set Linux apart and that make it more useful than what
we used to suffer with.
