similar to: World Of Warcraft perfomance problem.

I can play WoW perfectly, it is 100% stable and I can get great fps. One problem though, when I minimize the game and I maximize it, sometimes I can just keep playing happily but sometimes thats not the case. I minimize it, maximize it again and the FPS drops to about 10-20fps (anywhere). As you might know, this is VERY annoying, I've tried changing loads of settings in-game with no help.

I just put a 1680x1050 LCD monitor on my home system, and I went into system-config-display to configure it as such, and it just won't take. I had to tweak some of the settings by hand, but when I log out, I get the wide screen for both the Nvidia driver splash screen and the login screen. But, when I log in, It jumps back to 1280x1024 and refuses to run in wide screen mode. Here's the

I've been working hard to get my Wacom tablet to work as my primary pointing device. I've installed the drivers and followed the instructions at the Linux Wacom project at Sourceforge. And I've been largely successful. The drivers are working, the configuration utilities are working. I'm just one step away from success. Apparently the problem is that my mouse and my USB tablet

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello everybody, Those who are active in #Xgl on freenode know that I've had segfaults when starting Xgl during the last few weeks (which is also why there was no progress on my g-w-d rewrite). Today I found the time to debug Xgl and to find the bug. My mouse was configured as evdev device in xorg.conf, and to use it, it was set as the

I have a Centos 5.7 machine with Intel I10 video (built-in, I guess -- this is one of those all-in-one mini terminal things) that I'm trying to put a new 1920x1080 monitor onto, without conspicuous success. Prior to this it's been using a smaller monitor with no issues. Try as I might I can't get the new monitor to run at its 1920x1080 resolution. I just realized that I forgot to

I just bit the bullet and installed CentOS 5 on my work desktop, and although I have two monitors and a card that supports them, I cannot get the display configuration to work with both as a continuous (spanning) desktop. I have tried using the correct (autodetected) monitor type (digital and analog), a generic LCD with 1280x1024, nothing works. Every time I set the configuration, the X server

I've successfully set up 3 machines now (2 nvidia and one radeon 7500, all ubuntu gutsy) with compiz and aiglx and have been very happy with compiz on all of them. Scaling is wonderful. I'm trying to do my main workstation now which is a multihead (dual) configuration with an nvidia 6150: 00:05.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation C51PV [GeForce 6150] (rev a2) Both displays

If I use "system-config-display" or "system-config-display --reconfig" although I get a message that I need to log out of GNOME, to have the new file written, for new Display Resolution, logging out or restarting the box does not result in the new settings for the Display taking hold. Sometimes, the number of colors is updated, but *never* the Resolution. Below is my xorg.conf

Hi, I just installed the latest nouveau driver from git to try if it works and after modifying my xorg.conf and switching to xorg-x11 opengl startx changes screenmode (screen gets black) and nothing more happens. I can ssh from another maschine and see that X takes 100% CPU but nothing more happens. I am on Gentoo Linux, followed the guide from the Wiki, have Xorg-x11-7.2, tuxonice patched

Hello. I burned a CD with the 5.2 netinstall iso, and installed it onto a laptop (Acer Aspire 3680). Note that I'm *totally* new to laptops. The install went fine. But, when I boot it, it errors at the user login. A screen comes up, stating that X11 cannot start, and that it's probably the mouse. A bit of investigating revealed that there is no Synaptics module installed. It will

Hello. I am experiencing a problem with CentOS 3, it's that when I start Xwindow, my keyboard is lost and I can't do anything anymore. The Num Lock doesn't react nor the Caps lock. It's like if it would just be disabled. If I quit Xwindow, then my keyboard comes back again, working perfectly. Did anybody also have this problem ? I had a look elsewhere but didn't see anything

Hello there! I just bought this trackball and connected it to a CentOS 4 box. I googled on how to edit xorg.conf for the 2 scrollbuttons, and they work while using this section: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2" Option

Hi I am trying to get Battlefield 2 and Battlefield 2142 to launch under Kubuntu 10.04 & Wine 1.3.6. I'm using an Nvidia 8800 GTX 768Mb GPU with Nvidia blob driver 260.19.12. Anyway launching BF2142 (retail copy, patched to v1.5) gives me the following error (2x) in the console output streams: Code: ... err:x11settings:X11DRV_ChangeDisplaySettingsEx No matching mode found 800x600x32

Dear nouveau developers and users! After many years of dealing with the blob in my kernel, I decided it was time to move to an open source solution. With one of my machines, equipped with 9500GT it went almost flawlessly. I had to patch kernel to get GLXVBlank option working (only because I used the latest and greatest 3.7-rc6), but that is all, and I'm very happy with the result. Nouveau on

Hello list, I just had a first shot at the "nouveau" Xorg driver, I'm a regular "nv" user. It compiled and installed without a itch in a short time, congrats (great instructions on http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/InstallNouveau), ran fine... but with a funny vertical fencing effect: one vertical line out of two was black. After a few minutes, the effect would
