dragging windows leaves traces

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Are you using the x.org driver (nv) or the nvidia one?

I've tried nvidia driver with RENDER extension and XFCE development 
version on __gentoo__, and moving transparent windows were "smooth".

However I'd not use such a setup on a serious machine (which CentOS is 
fine for). (Maybe only the nvidia driver but without the RENDER extension).
