[Bug 291462] Re: KDE4 desktop in Intrepid is unacceptably SLOW on standard GPUs (Intel GMA9x5 for example) and totally unusable via remote sessions (VNC and NX)

 

When selecting  desktop effects on 34 bit dual-core machines resizing of window is much slower than with compiz-fusion  ; for gelatine effects it is quasi the same speed ; some options like destop on a cylinder or on a sphere cannot be activated maybe they are not present ; some others options when checked do not work ; I have removed all compiz packages just to make sure there was no compatibility problems ; I am wondering why to redevelop a KDE-4 3D desktop when compiz is available ; why not simply interface it ?
Regards.

KDE4 desktop in Intrepid is unacceptably SLOW on standard GPUs (Intel GMA9x5 for example) and totally unusable via remote sessions (VNC and NX)!

1. GUI updates always delayed.
2. Object redrawing takes sometimes a seconds, while garbage is displayed instead of objects in the middle.
3. Paging text in editors/browsers is hardly possible, seconds to get next page in Kate!
4. In VNC and NX sessions widgets partially missing or distorted.
5. Many GUI elements are over sized and leaves too little workspace in applications.

ALL OF THAT ON UP TO DATE DUAL CORE MACHINES, EVEN VISTA DOES ALL THAT BETTER!!!
NONE OF ABOVE IS CORRECT FOR KDE3!!!
