Title:
opengl plugin reports Unity is software rendering although it "is
fully supported" by hardware
Status in Compiz:
Invalid
Status in compiz package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
When running unity --replace it reports that it enables software
rendering because it is not supported by my hardware (Unity is not
supported by your hardware. Enabling software rendering instead
(slow).), but in the next line it displays "Unity is fully supported
by your hardware."
Running unity_support_test also shows full support, which leaves me
quite confused. Graphics Card is an NVidia Quadro FX 360M (G86M) and
the driver is nvidia-experimental-310.
Unity runs somewhat slow, but I cannot tell whether it actually uses
software or hardware rendering (maybe the perceived slowness is caused
by something else). Below is the full output of the command:
