Description of problem: I finally got so fed up with this that I'm filing a bug. On r300g/r600g (2 of my machines): A transtition effect between 2 photos that uses transparency is _extremely_ slow and makes the machine completely unresponsive for multiple seconds at a time while the transistion is performed. This is all in firefox. I don't know whether the actual bug is in r300g/r600g/mesa/kernel/firefox but it's extremely annoying and has been for a long time already. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. start firefox 2. go to page http://seilo.geekyogre.com/2011/04/zeitgeist-work-towards-gnome-3-2 3. click on the first screenshot 4. boom 5. click on the little right arrow in the enlarged pop-up screenshot to go to the next screenshot 6. experience the nice unresponsiveness again Actual results: unresponsiveness Expected results: responsiveness Additional info:
sorry, forgot versions: xorg-x11-drv-ati.x86_64 6.13.1-0.4.20100705git37b348059.fc14 firefox.x86_64 3.6.16-1.fc14 mesa-dri-drivers.i686 7.9-5.fc14 mesa-dri-drivers.x86_64 7.9-5.fc14 mesa-libGL.i686 7.9-5.fc14 mesa-libGL.x86_64 7.9-5.fc14 mesa-libGL-devel.x86_64 7.9-5.fc14 mesa-libGLU.i686 7.9-5.fc14 mesa-libGLU.x86_64 7.9-5.fc14 mesa-libGLU-devel.x86_64 7.9-5.fc14 kernel.x86_64 2.6.35.12-88.fc14 also a correction: I experience this on r300g and r600c, so the driver should be excluded based on this. BTW. no messages in the system log
ok, tried it with google chrome 11.0.696.50 beta chrome does have the issue so clearly this is a firefox issue.
just tested on F15 with FF, no problem. so it's a FF 3.x issue. F15 FF: firefox.x86_64 4.0-3.fc15
This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
