[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 261461] [NEW] F-Spot Slideshow unusable

[direx]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: f-spot

Starting a slideshow in F-Spot (only ~100 pictures) does not work correctly. The pictures (2 megapixels) take forever to load (about 30 seconds) and the transitions are extremely slow and nasty. The worst thing is, that the slideshow cannot be quit. When I move the mouse around nothing happens.
There should be a little bar where I can quit fullscreen mode and pause the slideshow, but the bar does not appear at all. Instead the screen flickers when I move the mouse and as soon as I click somewhere F-Spot freezes. It is still possible to force F-Spot to quit.
This happens with desktop effects enabled as well as without effects; I've also tried the nv and nvidia driver.

System: Ubuntu 8.04.1
Machine: Pentium 4, 2 GHz, 512 MB RAM, NVIDIA GF 4 MX (OpenGL enabled with proprietary driver)
Using f-spot:0.4.3.1-0ubuntu1
