Hi,
I have just upgraded to karmic (fresh install). Everything works fine. I isntalled the latest FGLRX drivers from the restricted hardware drivers.
It installed fine, but when it rebooted, i enabled the usual wobbely windows and desktop cube. I noticed that alt tab, resizing/maximizing windows was really slow. It is near impossible to resize a widow in the normal mode. It takes a second or 2 to think about it before maximizing. Its getting really frustrating now.
I have seen tome threads about this with jaunty, i have tried the patched x server but the ppa doesn't have a karmic version. The ppa with jaunty gets ignored as the karmic one is newer.
Anyone know of a patched version for karmic, or another fix? Even metacity in compositing mode is really slow to alt-tab
