This document is for creating the 4.0 release notes. There are 3 parts:
- the notes themselves
- comments and todo's about what should be added to them
- comments about what should be in the accompanying kwin 4.0 video
4.0 release notes
=================
- Performance/smoothness with nVidia cards: Smoothness of KWin rendering
can be improved by setting env.variable KWIN_NVIDIA_HACK to 1 (e.g. append
"export KWIN_NVIDIA_HACK=1" to your ~/.profile file). This sets __GL_YIELD=NOTHING
for KWin, letting KWin use more CPU time for OpenGL operations, however
at the expense of affecting performance of other applications. This is
therefore disabled by default. This setting may be removed in the future
if the negative impact becomes insignificant. See section "OPENGL YIELD BEHAVIOR"
in README.txt for nVidia cards.
