2010-09-15 11:11:21 bkrzem description Binary package hint: xorg I am on Toshiba NB 205 netbook. The OpenGL animations are jerky but when I rest my finger on the touchpad (!) it seems to help. For example, the glxgears animation is very jerky and I get about 130 - 170 frames/sec, but with my finger on the touchpad the framerate goes to 300 fps (synced with verical refresh) and the animation is very smooth. Similarly when playing Extreme Tux Racer - the graphics is jerky but seems to be much smoother with my finger touching the trackpad. This happens both with the stock xorg and xorg-edgers ppa packages. I did not have this issue in ubuntu 9.10 Binary package hint: xorg I am on Toshiba NB 205 netbook.
