[Bug 574069] Re: [Lucid] Loading nvidia-settings hurts compiz performance

 

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: nvidia-settings
  
  As per this forum post:
  
  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1469528
  
  In a nutshell, when nvidia-settings --load-config-only is run on startup
  (which is a default action), compiz performance becomes rather terrible.
  This has been confirmed on both fresh install and upgrade.
  
  The workaround is to disable the action on startup. However, manually
  going to the nvidia-settings program will bring compiz down to its knees
  again (at least in my case: I believe another person had no problem).
