Could you please rephrase/clarify?
I have a similar issue on X11 since Gnome 3.6 or 3.8 (can't remember exactly) where when dragging windows, the window is moving a bit behind on where it should be relative to the cursor.
Feels smooth rather than crisp as it was previously, but it also feels like my CPU is playing catchup although it isn't.
I hope your comment was sarcasm! :)
- jmhain 12y ago> when dragging windows, the window is moving a bit behind on where it should be relative to the cursor I meant precisely that. I believe it has to do with difficulties synchronizing the X Server with the compositor. Wayland eliminates this by making the compositor the server. Nothing in my comment was sarcasm...
- fredmorcos 12y agoI remember this never used to happen with Gnome 3.4 and earlier. I think it started happening when they announced this frame-perfect timing/rendering system. Solved a tearing problem but introduced a lag problem :) I guess you're right though, the lag problem should be solved with Wayland.
