Bug Description

I'm running the latest version of LiveWallpaper under Ubuntu 12.10 (desktop, 64 bit). When I try the Galaxy wallpaper I see a lot of little squares on the screen near the stars (watch the image to understand the problem better). However, the Nexus wallpaper works fine.

I use a P530 Samsung laptop

display info: Display LED HD da 15,6" (1366 x 768) 16:9 Non-Gloss
video card: Nvidia GeForce 310M
OS: Ubuntu 12.10 64bit

Excuse me for my Engish, I hope I could help!

I get the same problem on my machine sometimes but I thought it was a problem with the fglrx driver. You are using a nvidia card so this was not the case. Ok, will the squares become stars after a while? This mainly happens when I switch the workspace, so does this also happen to you?

I guess you are using the new livewallpaper application and not the compiz plugins because the livewallpaper indicator is running on your system so I changed the affected project to the new livewallpaper project. Or does this bug really affect the compiz plugins?

I think I'm running the new livewallpaper app. I installed it via ppa

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:fyrmir/livewallpaper-daily
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install livewallpaper livewallpaper-config livewallpaper-indicator

The squares don't become stars after a while and the problem doesn't seem to be related with workspace switching.

Yes, you are using the livewallpaper app.

I updated the package. Please try if you now see the stars instead of the squares.
