[Bug 144216] Re: Slow switching tab in firefox/opera when the desktop effects are enabled in Gutsy Gibbon

[Pedro Santos]

This problem can be fixed by updating the graphic card's driver. The
easiest way is to install Envy by typing " sudo apt-get install envyng-
gtk" if you use Ubuntu or "sudo apt-get install envyng-qt" on a Kubuntu
machine. Run it by accessing the shortcut installed in
Applications->System tools->EnvyNG, then select NVIDIA, check "Install
NVIDIA driver (Automatic detection of hardware) and press apply. It
should take a while and in the end you' re asked to restart your
computer.

With the new driver running emerald, both compiz animations and tab
switching work flawlessly.

Best regards!
