Full disclosure: before running glxgears I had KDE Desktop Effects partially enabled. On disabling them the sluggishness in scrolling, switching desktops etc. improved markedly. I only noticed this after sending my original post. However the glxgears test was run with DE *disabled*. Also, the background repainting bug is still there in KDE, but not in Gnome, i.e. it's likely to be a KDE issue. poc -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
