--- Comment #18 from LTHR <lanthrus...@gmail.com> --- (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #16) > Could we fall back to using the software renderer automatically if we detect > hardware that's not capable of doing hardware-accelerated rendering, perhaps? Or have an option in KDE config.... May be I'm wrong but it looks like a bug. Section "Device" Identifier "Device0" VendorName "INTEL Corporation" BoardName "GMA 3600 [GMA500]" Driver "modesetting" Option "AccelMethod" "glamor" # Option "SWCursor" "ON" Option "DPMS" "TRUE" Option "DRI" "3" EndSection DRI3 is fine, glxgears is fine, FULL HD video is fine, Photoshop 19 is fine, smooth graphics, LXQT - fine, XFCE - fine, chromium - smooth graphics and performance, firefox - smooth graphics, not much CPU usage from any of them. I can't image how normally plasmashell can consume more CPU than chromium with 50+ tabs opened for 5+ minutes when mouse is rolled over a menu item.... it's just 100% and nothing helps, that's the last thing left unsolved for this netbook. If you google you will find a lot of reports about plasmashell taking 100% of CPU all of a sudden. But randomly - the only way to fix it is to kill it. It looks very familiar to my case but in my case - it's always 100% and always re-producible. I believe it's the same bug. It can't normally be that rolling a mouse over an item it KDE menu can require the same amount of CPU as - none-accelerated Full HD VIDEO requires in 7 minutes. It must be a bug. May be fixing it will accelerate KDE to the new performance horizonts. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
