Hi all,
Problem 1:
Compiz-Fusion works good, but it gives me very high cpu usage. It will always use about 25% of total cpu usage, even when just doing nothing. I suspect something is not entirely setup correctly.
Problem 2 (possibly related):
When using Compiz-Fusion and starting up google earth (linux emu) package, the opengl part of google earth starts to flicker heavily, impossible to play with it. When compiz is off, google-earth plays perfectly.
info about the system:
Starting compiz with
glxgears takes up 25% of total too, by the way, but that's possibly normal, since it will try to go as fast as possible.
here a top output when compiz-fusion is started:
files attached: dmesg & xorg.conf
Any suggestions welcome.
Rick
