2008-10-21 13:10:39 Neil J. Patel netbook-remix-launcher: statusexplanation The launcher is written using Clutter, which is a GL canvas. I'm not sure what difference reducing the animations would make, the performance would still be horribly slow (like processing clicks etc) as the entire launcher is using software rendering. Also, I'm not sure how to detect that we're on software rendering. If this is possible, I don't mind making some builds to see if disabling the animations helps.

This can't be completely be fixed as Intel drivers do not currently support accelerated GL on more than one VT. Until that happens, we don't have a solution to fix this issue. However, bug 320796 will be looked to address the software only rendering issue.
