[Gutsy] Terminal tabs opening slowly, freezing terminal for a while with Compiz and terminal window maximized.

I am experiencing exactly the same problem. If the terminal (gnome-terminal) window is maximized, it redraws its content really slow. And if I open a new tab the terminal freezes, unmaximizing the terminal makes it work nomally. This repeats in the same way everytime I tried it.

I am running Ubunty Gutsy fully updated, with advanced Compiz visual effects. My machines is a Dell Inspiron 6400, Dual Core 1.7, with 1 GB of RAM and Intel Video.

Othe than this problem I haven't seen a slow graphical behavior in othe applications. As workaround I just work with the termina unmaximized.

confirmed on Dell D620 (Core 2 Duo, i810), Gutsy. Only happen to maximized gnome-terminal

happen on Live CD too, disabling Compiz eliminates problem

opening first tab doesn't show the new tab (waited for 5 minutes). Switching away and back, or clicking on terminal window, or clicking on titlebar will show the tab. Subsequent tabs open normally.

Closing first tab OK, but with a little delay. Didn't have this problem with Beryl on Feisty.

same problem here...

The issue that you reported is one that should be reproducible with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the development release - Hardy Heron. It would help us greatly if you could test with it so we can work on getting it fixed in the actively developed release. You can find out more about the development release at [WWW] http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/

We are closing this bug report because it lacks the information we need to investigate the problem, as described in the previous comments. Please reopen it if you can give us the missing information, and don't hesitate to submit bug reports in the future. To reopen the bug report you can click on the current status, under the Status column, and change the Status back to "New". Thanks again!

Sorry for the delayed response, I downloaded the live CD of Alpha 6
but I have been unable to make it work.

Travis,

    I will check this again when I upgrade to the stable release of
HH, and reopen if required. Thanks for your help.
