Greetings:

I am not able to import my ripped mkv movies with this build.

I do not know if import is broken.
Thanks.

- Searching or tagging (either directly or via the tagging panel) doesn't work very well for me at all. I need to double click the search bar in order to search. On windows it's just one click. The search results are shown with more lag than on Windows. When typing text, it frequently jumps out of the input / edit for now reason, or stops registering keyboard presses. This seems to happen at random times, but usually when the program just suggested something just below the input field. The input then loses focus. I get this a lot this with the '-' and 'Z' character. When copy / pasting text into the new tagging window, MC crashed.

- I am fixing some broken links after moving from Windows to Linux. I need to delete a song twice before it removes the song. The first time 'round, it blinks and the song I just removed is still there. After the second time it's finally gone. Edit: it seems like JRiver does delete it the first time around after all, the lag is just very long before it updates the screen.

- Mouse clicks sometimes don't quite register. It sometimes takes more than one click before the program responds.

- The program is frequently not able to keep up with the mouse cursor position. The mouse over effect lags quite a bit.

- Changing audio views is not quite as snappy as it is on Windows. There's a noticeable lag.

- When the option window is on top of the genres view (list style: thumbnails), the main window below it still responds to mouse overs, even though the cursor is being moved inside the option window.

I don't understand why JRiver is so laggy on Linux on the very same hardware. I must be doing something wrong here.

Sounds like you are running with the Nouveau video driver.
Try doing this from a prompt:
glxinfo | grep -i vendor
Report back the results.
If you get "unable to locate package glxinfo" do
sudo apt-get install mesa-utils
and try again.

Hi Bob,

Thank you for your advice. This the output of the CLI:

glxinfo | grep -i vendor
server glx vendor string: SGI
client glx vendor string: Mesa Project and SGI
Vendor: X.Org (0x1002)
OpenGL vendor string: X.Org

I have the following installed:
- mesa-utils
- xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
- also a large number of the - xserver-xorg-video- packages.

I do not have mesa-utils-extra installed.

OK thanks. How about:
lspci | grep VGA
