[Bug 1195692] Re: Dash takes a long time to open when running Mir on a netbook with i915 graphics

 

Invalid for Mir, BTW. This is a very old bug. Probably a duplicate.
We've been aware of Unity doing this on netbooks for some years.

Title:
  Dash takes a long time to open when running Mir on a netbook with i915
  graphics

Status in Mir:
  Invalid
Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I've installed Mir on an old Samsung netbook (N310) with an Atom CPU
  and onboard graphics. Everything seems to be normal, expect when I
  open the dash the following happens:

  1.) Press the Super key to open the Dash
  2.) Wait 60 seconds
  3.) A 'ghost' of the Dash appears (high alpha value)
  4.) Wait 60 more seconds
  5.) Dash is at last usable

  Closing the Dash works at the usual speed (not instant but acceptable)
