The graphic card you have selected may not be correct. Try selecting GeForce 400 or later.

Also search Synaptic for nvidia-current and see if it is installed.


yup nvidia-current installed



i choose GeForce 400 or later

If you haven't yet tried it, try

Config Your Desktop > Workspace Appearance and Behavior > Desktop Effects - Advanced Tab > Composting Type

try changing the Composting Type to XRender - if that is accepted then try OpenGL

and/or try switching the QT Graphic System

Occasionally it needs the desktop to be restarted after some System Settings have been applied/removed


i tried that still the problem see with "minimize effect enabled"

Screencast223


without "minimize effect"

Screencast2 (Embedding disabled, limit reached)

but after restat i see this the Propriety driver for your graphic card can not be found, the system is now using the free software driver (nvidia) !!
also in PCC message beside word "MODULE"

Does it still say the same thing now?

The message about nv module probably means that your particular card is not yet supported by it. Just guessing here.

I read somewhere that xorg.conf is not really needed for X anymore. But having one allows you to run an exact configuration you desire.

Go to /etc/X11 and check if xorg.conf does indeed exist or not.

If not, you may need to create one.

is there another program to record ? just for try
i try gtk-recordmydesktop but after encoding video and play it , it's all green !!

because that lag with minimize effect happen when i play the video in any program vlc - smplayer .. etc or upload it to youtube, but when i use kde and animation there is no lag at all. i don't know if this explain maybe the problem with ffmpeg !?
