The recent problem faced by me was that suddenly after an online update my computer went too slow….i could feel the zagginess while while moving windows. After using “ctrl+esc” i realized that Xorg was using a lot of CPU % which didnt come below 25% n every thing was getting slow coz of it. I though it was due to some problem in compiz or Xorg n will vanish after one or two updates but that didn’t happen so it striked to me that it must be due to some plugin so i turned off all the plugins n every thing was normal again

I started to turn on each plugin one by one and observe the changes n i saw that blur plugin was on but its own n it was causing the problem and also the reflection plugin was causing the problem ( well i dont have a graphics card n if u do maybe reflection plugin wont make a difference i think) so u can try this n if even this doesnt solve the problem try switching off the KDE4 native effects. Hope this will solve the similar problem faced by any of u

Hi every one…I think i might have helped many using this blog. But this time i might need some help. Actually i have been using Compiz fusion almost since it was released. I have gone through many ups n downs with it ( ups could be when i was amongst the first to see new features been added and downs would be when i was amongst the first to see all the bugs and crashes that came with the new versions). But all was well i was actually enjoying the ups and downs and was using the version 7.2.0 fairly well…and then i updates and the effects stoped working. Actually i got a command line instead of the login screen whenever xgl was on….i thought this bug will be sloved with yet another update but 3 updates came past me but it stilled didnt work out….my problem remained the same…no login screen… Then i thought it might be a problem with some plugin so i turned off all the plugins and sill the same problem. Then i reverted back to the oldest version of XGL that was available in the OSS repo of openSUSE 10.3 ( Oh! sry i forgot….i m using openSUSE 10.3 with 768 mb ram n intel 915gm board). Well after reverting back to the oldest XGL i got the login screen but after logging in compiz crashed. This made me realise that maybe XGL in the XGL repo of open suse is not up-to-date with the compiz fusion i m using. Does any one know a work around for this problem i m facing…. and if someone realted to openSUSE comes across this problem please Fix this bug….Its been more than a week since i havent seen any of that beautiful desktop effects on my comp
