Bug Description

Binary package hint: kdebase-workspace-bin

Using the "Globe Satellite View" wallpaper (which is a very cool feature, btw.) causes my plasma-desktop process to produce significant (i.e., ~ 25%) constant cpu load. The parameters "Quality" and "Rotation" do not seem to influence this. Even with "Low" and "Do not move" the cpu load is unchanged. Switching the wallpaper to "Color" reduces load of plasma-desktop to ~ 2 %.

Package: kdebase-workspace 4:4.3.1-0ubuntu1
ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.31-8.28-generic
DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.10

Hi there!

Thanks for reporting this bug! Your bug seems to be a problem with the KDE program itself, and not with our KDE packages. While we appreciate your issue, it would be better if it was tracked at https://bugs.kde.org, so that the KDE developers can deal with this speedily and have direct communication with you as the reporter for more effective debugging.

Thanks!
