I installed a vanilla Lucid Lynx Desktop today from the day one release
CD. In order to try the netbook interface as an alternative window
manager I first installed just netbook-launcher, and subsequently
installed ubuntu-netbook and all its dependencies.
After installing just netbook-launcher, an 'Ubuntu Netbook Edition 2D'
profile appeared. Logged out and back in again and I could see the
launcher at the same time as ordinary Gnome panels top and bottom. In
this configuration netbook-launcher was and remains responsive, but is
not properly integrated into the window manager (e.g. you can't click on
the Ubuntu icon to launch it, windows are shown in the conventional
gnome panels).
After subsequently installing ubuntu-netbook and all its dependencies,
an 'Ubuntu Netbook Edition' profile appeared as well (doesn't say 2D).
Launching this gives me a full ubuntu-netbook experience with the
window-picker applet at the top, but the netbook-launcher is so slow as
to be unusable. This is at the same time that the Scale plugin in Compiz
runs smoothly and at full speed (e.g. the desktop is running full 3D
acceleration perfectly well). Clicking on any category in netbook-
launcher takes anything up to 10-20 seconds to slowly animate a refresh,
making it unusable as a navigation tool.
I tried purging all netbook packages and reinstalling just ubuntu-
netbook, but I seem to be stuck with these two alternatives - just
netbook-launcher at full speed as a background in an ordinary gnome
session, (Ubuntu Netbook 2D) or full fledged netbook features, (Ubuntu
Netbook) with an impossibly slow rendering behaviour from netbook-
launcher.
I'd like to build a working netbook edition for my girlfriend and was
planning to run Ubuntu Desktop in full, but with Netbook Edition as an
alternative login option so she has both options. Is this possible?
What's the rendering bug and is there a workaround?
Is it possible that I ended up with some corrupted config from my first
attempt (just installing netbook-launcher) which needs to be cleared
out.
I submitted this bug from the non-2D Ubuntu Netbook Edition session, so
it should report the correct information for the buggy scenario.
