Description Moo 2008-08-09 03:33:15 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
So I pressed Alt+F2 and up came "Run application" dialog.
So I typed "free the fish" and pressed enter, and this cute little goldfish came and swam across the screen.

So I pressed Ctrl+Alt+L and started the screensaver (Fireworks).
But now I noticed that the fish was flickering on the screensaver and the rockets were lagging. :(

Steps to reproduce:
1. Press Alt+F2.
2. Type "free the fish", click Run.
3. Activate screebsaver.


Actual results:
Screensaver flickers and is laggy and slow, few FPS.

Expected results:
Screensaver work normally and fast as usual.

Does this happen every time?
Yes.

bugzilla.gnome.org is being replaced by gitlab.gnome.org. We are closing all old bug reports in Bugzilla which have not seen updates for many years.

If you can still reproduce this issue in a currently supported version of GNOME (currently that would be 3.38), then please feel free to report it at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-panel/-/issues/

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
