Bug Description
Binary package hint: compiz
Installed Ubuntu 8.04 Beta, activated the proprietary ati driver. Desktop effect were activated by default.
In both totem and VLC video playback uses way too much CPU. (impossible to view a DVD on my system, cpu maxed out)
If I disable the Desktop effect everything is back to normal.
As a personal comment:
The Xpress 200 has always had a number a problem with ati drivers... the driver have been getting better recently however I think enabling desktop effect by default on that chipset might cause more problem that what it's worth.
