Plasma Compositor

Postby Spinnifex » May 11th, '21, 17:57

Hello

I am using KDE for years and was happy with this.
Now on mageia8 i have the impression that UI is not that responsive as I was used to.
I read a little bit about and changed the Compositor from OpenGL 3.1 to 2.0
and change the scale method from exact to smooth.

This improved the UI responsivenes a litte bit I thought.
Maybe everything is only subjective.

I use a Nvidia 1050 Grafic card and Intel i5 CPU so I wonder why
my system is so "slow".

I only mean the window behavior not the system as a whole.

regards

I'm using a GTX 970 and an i5 with default settings, and nothing feels slow nor unresponsive, so cannot reproduce what you are referring to.

Hello

What environment do you use?
KDE?
Do you use Nvidia driver?

I now re installed Mageia with Nouvau .
The window behavior is much "smoother" then with Nvidia drivers used.

But as I wrote only subjective.
Menus appear instantly without delay.
Programs start without delay.

Anyone else may noticed that?

Regards
