App-switcher (alt-tab) hangs when playing video
If I use any of the two application switchers (Application Switcher and Static A. S. in ccsm), and I have a windows that plays video, compiz hangs at 100% cpu and in practice becomes unresponsive.
This started occuring the last 3-4 weeks and is 100% reproducible.
Likely suspet is the binary nvidia driver. lspci says 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GK110 [GeForce GTX 780](rev a1)
Currently running NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-340.32.run from nvidia.com and $(uname -r) is 3.16.6-200.fc20.x86_64
Version: $ rpm -q compiz compiz-0.8.8-27.fc20.x86_64
Could you change to console when this happens and attach strace to compiz to see what is going on? E.g. strace -p pidofcompiz. And is it compiz or xorg or a mix that uses all the CPU?
ill try but its fairly unresponsive
ssh into it might work
it does not reproduce on a laptop with intel graphics On Nov 15, 2014 12:05 AM, "Kristian Lyngstøl" [email protected] wrote:
