Oh, and it happens only with OpenGL compositing, not with XRender. Sorry to say but that is a really old NVIDIA bug. I used to have it with Compiz in the time when the 96.xx driver was the most recent version. As I don't think NVIDIA will fix in that old driver versions it's really sad :-( afair it helped to /NOT/ use blurring (delays by less TRAM consume) or direct rendering (though latter won't exactly improve performance...), i.e. indirect should more or less fix this by the cost of a performance hit. (unfortunately old drivers didn't support Xrender XForm as well..) Hmm, for blurring you need shaders, right? So I can't use blurring anyway. And deactivating direct rendering didn't help. It just became even slower. So, as I won't count an Nvidia fixing it, it seems I'll need a new graphics card... :( |
