Compiz Fusion-0.8.4 + Intel GMA Card - Slowness Issue

Post by Fratyr » Sun Jan 10, 2010 9:13 am

Hello Guys.

I couldn't find any optimization guides for Compiz+Intel GMA Graphic Cards over the internet, so I want to ask you if anyone can offer me a good configuration for Compiz in order to raise the FPS.

The Problem
Fired: Fusion-Icon -- Emerald+Compiz -- FPS = 15 per 5 seconds
Tested: Fusion-Icon -- Metacity+GTK Window Decorator -- FPS = 650 per 5 seconds
Tested with glxgears

Tell me if you need more information, and How can I make Compiz work faster? I don't need all it's effects, I need only 3D rotating cube, and It's rotating fine, but moving the windows/switching between/closing/opening/scrolling inside a browser - Is slow as Hell!

Thank you!

I had similar issue with ATI card. Try rename your ~/.config/compiz directory to something like ~/.config/compiz.old. It worked for me. I don't know why, maybe there was some wrong/old configuration. Compiz recreates the directory and configuration afresh.

Deleted ~/.conf/compiz
UNCHECK: CompizConfig Settings Manager -> Workarounds -> Fix screen updates in XGL with fgrx <- UNCHECK THIS AND EVERYTHING WORKS SMOOTH AND FINE :D
