Yakuake + Compiz + ATI + Jaunty = slow response

[m1st0]

Binary package hint: yakuake

Using a Dell Studio 15, ATI Mobiity Radeon 3400 HD.

In Intrepid, Yakuake would appear instantly on my hotkey (F12); however, in Jaunty the hotkey activates Yakuake a few seconds after it is pressed. It works fine, but it takes long time to activate. This problem also occured in Intrepid when I updated the xserver-xorg-* to particular ppa2 versions, but that may not be helpful.

lsb_release -rd:
Description: Ubuntu 9.04
Release: 9.04

I believe this is the Release Candidate as I updated yesterday, April 21. I did not place a comment in similar bugs because this is a slow appearance issue rather than a crash or text issue.

I am also experiencing this issue, but I have ASUS X71A Notebook with Intel Mobile 4 integrated series. I have changed my window manager to Metacity and I get almost instant response, so it seems the bug is tied down to so Compiz. I have removed most of the extras in compiz-config and also applied rules to not include yakuake in running effects, but it didn't help. I guess compiz isn't happy with the high speed resizing motion of the dropping down yakuake.

I'm also experiencing this issue using Compiz + ATI with yakuake. It seems to work fine once it's open, and it closes fine, just hangs for a bit when initially pressing 'f12'. My card is a Radeon HD3450, and I'm also running Jaunty.

Same thing here with a lenovo R500 ATI Radon HD 3400 series.

The bug appeared only after I installed the flgrx drivers.

This bug report was filed against an old version of Ubuntu.
Can you confirm whether this is still an issue in natty?

If you don't mind, it would be very helpful if you could update the bug
report in launchpad to 'Fix Released' if it is no longer an issue for
you, or if it is still occurring under natty, please tag the bug 'natty'
so it's easier for us to track.

No longer occurs per Maverick and likely Natty since the issues were resolved earlier in updates to ATI drivers and xorg.
