[Bug 770160] Re: windows start to move slow after using compiz for some hours

 

I've found a rather easy workaround. I simply had to disable the
following option in the Device section of my /etc/X11/xorg.conf (see the
attached file) so that vline doesn't wait for non-pageflipped swap
buffers:

Option "SwapbuffersWait" "False"

Remeber to restart the xserver afterwards (e.g. log in and log out) and
moving windows shouldn't be slow any more. I can't see any regressions
after doing this.

Note: this works with the radeon driver but should also work with intel.
I'm not sure how to do the same with proprietary drivers.
