[Bug 753144] Re: focused, or maximized windows blank

 

I have to agree with Josh.

I did install 173, and Unity was working fine, so I decided to try out
Gnome 3, and it was a total catastrophe, under 173. The content of the
windows was not updating properly, so I was stuck with a computer that
"seemed" blocked, untill I realized it was only a matter of freezing
windows (Icould see the windows "moving" when I saw them as thumbnails
only.

So, all in all, I uninstalled Gnome 3, reinstalled the latest nvidia
driver, forget 173, and went back to Gnome 2.

The point of the matter is that, in my opinion (I have Unity in another
machine), Unity is not worth the learning curve to get it to work at
least as good as gnome 2 was. Maybe if, one day, there is a new nvidia
driver that solves this problem, I will try it again.

For the time being, I feel I have wasted enough time trying to solve a
problem that simply is not worth it.

BTW, maybe in that new driver, nvidia will get a way to change the
brightness of the monitor when I disconnet it from AC.
