Title:
[nvidia] Restoring minimized applications presents blank
Ok! It took a while, but I've filed Bug #995659 . It's focused on the
Alt-` behavior.
Rainer, thank you for confirming that. And for reminding me that it's
clearer to call it Alt-` more than Alt-Grave. (You have to spell out
Alt-Tab, and I think that got me in that mindset.)
Anyone who sees t
In-line with comment #56, I can confirm that the Alt-` (grave accent)
window switch produces a blank window several times in a row, while Alt-
Tab and maximizing by mouse works just fine.

Another bug has been sucking up my bug-fixing time, but I still plan to
file a new one.
For now, the main thing I have noted: restoring minimized windows with
the Alt-Grave key is where I get blank windows. Restoring with the
mouse, or with plain Alt-Tab does not. Alt-Grave does not do it every
Didier, thanks for the guidance. I'll do that, and link the new bug in

@Edward: I suggest that you open another bug report describing exactly
the condition for the remaining issues (quite a lot of noise in that bug
report). I'll then have a look at it and see if it can be worked for a
stable release update :)

This could be a candidate for a "Known Issues" list, for 12.04.0. I'll

On an unrelated report (bug 982767), I had the chance to ask release
expert Steve Langasek about current bugs and Thursday's release. He
said:
"Any fixes in this area will not make it for 12.04.0. They will be
considered for inclusion in 12.04.1."
That was a different piece if software, but I'll
I wish I knew the release process better. I'd kind of like to know
whether we should work with great urgency, to try to make Precise, or
whether it's really too late for that, and any fix would go out in an
update, and we can be a bit calmer.
I have to step away again, but I just saw Scott's new
Thanks for testing again, Shayne. I think it's pretty common to re-open
bugs when necessary, and since you're seeing it too, I would definitely
change it. (Probably to 'Triaged'.)
I would change it myself, if Launchpad would let me. As the original
reporter, I think you can, and I think that's
I can't seem to mark this as not fixed - all the options are greyed out.
Upon further testing, the blank windows when restoring a minimised
window (regardless of being maximised) seems to be being caused by the
animation. Since removing the animation on minimise/restore in the
plugin, it no longer

Thanks, FuzzyQ, and you're welcome, and, hey -- if we're a little off-

I want to note that, currently, the windows never show blank in the

and there were bug reports related to that, too.

Edward, somehow I must have missed your very long post adressing me, so sorry
for not answering earlier.
There was no offense taken, it's just that I'm still very new to this community
and haven't found my way around, yet.
My experience so far was that there already is a bug report (or even a fi
I'm still positive that my experiences and yours are related.
Furthermore, I find Scott's theory very interesting. I'm running Ubuntu
on a Samsung R710 laptop, my graphical memory is only 512MiB. I'm
getting these blank-outs quite often, especially when the whole system
is outmaxed.

Scott, thank you -- boy, that is the smarter thinking I was wishing for.
I had just come back, to note that my attempts to get a well-focused bug
definition were falling apart. I actually tried to search for similar-

I've done some more testing on this, and found the following:
- Minimising windows go blank as soon as the button is clicked. (I have
slightly slower animations, so I can easily see this - it's pretty
gruesome).
- Restoring windows seem to go blank when the video memory is low
(around the 900/102
Cripes!
I am getting blank windows on restore, again.

* It's only windows that were maximized, then minimized. So not exactly
the same as Fuzzy or Scott report. Which is frustrating! :)

I'm still experiencing this, but I get it even when restoring non-

In addition! I didn't emphasize this: Nobody who fixed 938658 commented

Oh, FuzzyQ, let me stress, there's no matter for apology, and this is

Hey Edward! No problem, you did the right thing. If I had found this bug

Hey fuzzyq are you getting the blank window when maximizing an app from

nor where in the code this was fixed (for some of us).

I did as you hinted and tried the latest version from official repositories

Fuzzy, if you're running the nvidia driver from a ppa, and not plain
Precise, then trying vanilla Precise, instead, is the only thought I
have. I don't have any technical particulars behind that thought, just
hoping that you may see the fix, if you're running the exact same
packages.
