looped workspace warping #576

Open sillysloft opened 18 years ago

sillysloft commented 18 years ago

Hi,

I thought I'd submitted this bug before, but perhaps not (I searched and could neither find a closed nor open bug matching).

I'm still using Fluxbox 0.9.10 due to a bug that suddenly appeared in 0.9.11 and still remains until 0.9.15. From the changelog to 0.9.15.1, I don't see it having been removed.

Typically when my system is under a fair load, if I drag a window to the side of the screen to the next workspace, fluxbox will start madly flipping the window between workspaces. If I let go of the mouse and wait a few seconds it eventually stops flipping and the window lands in a random workspace.

It's a bit annoying and I'm not sure what's causing it. Let me know if I can provide any additional details that may be helpful.

I've got a 900 mhz AMD Duron. dmesg output: Features=0x183fbff<FPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,APIC,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA,CM OV,PAT,PSE36,MMX,FXSR> AMD Features=0xc0440800<SYSCALL,<b18>,MMX+,3DNow+,3DNow>

Thanks.

Hi, this bug still exist in 1.0rc. I'm using fluxbox on desktop (Athlon 2000+) and on laptop (Pentium M 600). On the desktop is everything OK (even under heavy load), but on the laptop it is broken like described above. I think this bug has something to do with CPU speed and/or with GPU speed. It makes desktop warping unusable on slower computers with opaque window moving enabled.

Thanks
