Has anyone else been seeing some GNOME 40 animation freezes and lags? I have a Dell 9310
XPS (11th Gen i7/16GB of RAM) and with animations enabled the mouse cursor will sometimes
freeze and lag. Strangely I have access to a Dell 9300 (10th Gen i7) running FL34 and
it's fine. I'm not running TLP on mine and I've wiped it to make sure I
didn't have some weird old config in place. The mouse will just quit responding and
suddenly "jump" to catch up at times, it even does this when the machine is not
under load. The 9300 has a 4K screen and the 9310 has a 1200p screen so if anything I
think the 9310 should be more lag-free with the faster CPU/GPU and less pixels to push
around.
I don't think it's a hardware problem since it's fine in GNOME 3.38 when I
tried Debian and FL33 on here. I've been running Linux on this machine exclusively. I
thought about leaving it on Debian but I'd like to use Fedora due to PipeWire and the
better BT audio codec support. I know there are some forth coming performance enhancements
for the GNOME 40 series too.
Just wondering if anyone else has similar hardware and has seen similar quirks.
Thanks!
