Hi all, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
This post might be a bit vague, sorry about that, I'm not sure where to start |
| 4 |
or how to explain it. |
| 5 |
|

New laptop with nVidia GeForce 8600. Arch ~amd64, emerged kde-meta-4.1, but it |
| 7 |
renders exceptionally slowly on the screen when scrolling. The effect is as if |
| 8 |
something is keeping the system very busy while input actions occur: |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
It can take 30 secs to scroll slashdot's front page from top to bottom. |
| 11 |
Any web page displayed in akregator inside kontact is even slower. |
| 12 |
When kwallet pops up asking for the master password, it misses keystrokes when |
| 13 |
typing at normal speed. |
| 14 |
Scrolling through a long mail in kmail is slightly slower than normal, but |
| 15 |
scrolling the same mail in a reply window is full speed. |
| 16 |
Konqueror in split-window mode takes a few seconds to react when navigating |
| 17 |
through directories. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
Firefox works normally. I use e17 as the window manager, so I'm seeing this |
| 20 |
just using KDE apps, not the whole DE. top, krells and other regular tools |
| 21 |
show the system running normally, no apparent spikes or busyness. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Can anyone point me in the direction of a nice howto or the correct tools to |
| 24 |
figure out what's going on here? |
