Re: Disable visual effects

have you checked that nomodeset had the intended effect? the previous lspci output should be different now.

i know that gtk3 demands a lot more, graphically, than e.g. gtk2, even with all "effects" disabled.

find out which apps are gtk2 or gtk3:

#!/bin/bash
cd /usr/bin
echo -e "\ngtk2\n---"
for F in *; do 
    objdump -p $F 2> /dev/null | grep gtk-x11-2.0 > /dev/null
    if (( $? == 0 )); then echo -e "  $F"
    fi
done
echo -e "\n-------\n\ngtk3\n----"
for F in *; do
    objdump -p $F 2> /dev/null | grep gtk-3 > /dev/null
    if (( $? == 0 )); then echo -e "  $F"
    fi
done
echo -e "\n--------\n"

then do some research.
i suspect gtk2 apps will fare a little better.

you can also save this:

/*
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GTK%2B#Client-side_decorations
*/
.window-frame, .window-frame:backdrop {
 box-shadow: 0 0 0 black;
 border-style: none;
 margin: 0;
 border-radius: 0;
}

.titlebar {
 border-radius: 0;
}

.window-frame.csd.popup {
  box-shadow: 0 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2), 0 0 0 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.13);
}

.header-bar {
  background-image: none;
  background-color: #ededed;
  box-shadow: none;
}
/* You may want to use this if you don't like the double title.
GtkLabel.title {
    opacity: 0;
}*/


/* from oomox documentation (using with tiling wms) */
window decoration {
    margin: 0;
    border: 0;
}

/*
various tweaks: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GTK+
*/
/* Remove dotted lines from GTK+ 3 applications */
undershoot.top, undershoot.right, undershoot.bottom, undershoot.left { background-image: none; }

as ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css

and add this:

gtk-enable-animations=0

to your already existing ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini

Re: Disable visual effects

I can't fix the issue because the card it's too old

The card isn't much good but the driver is a known problem so I do think that the modesetting driver from stretch may work better for you.

Did you try the Debian stretch live image?

If the windows don't "wobble" there then they should be good when you install, I would think.

I got exactly the same output, so I guess didn't work
About the GTK2 programs, I have a lot of programs with gtk3 (27 gtk2 and 21 gtk3) so it's a serious problem to me. And the changes on the settings of gtk3 doesn't work either

I tried and actually work pretty good, some programs works more faster than in the actual bunsenlabs installation I have. But I really like bunsenlabs and I'll prefer to solve the actual problem to install Debian from zero

Debian stretch performs better because the X server itself is much newer and has drivers that work better with your graphics card.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to backport the entire X server to a Debian jessie base and use it with BunsenLabs Hydrogen/Deuterium.

You will have to either use Debian stretch or wait until we release BunsenLabs Helium.

Re: Disable visual effects

Or risk running Helium-Dev, a simple netinstall + running a script away, very easy   Just there's a higher chance the devs might do something that breaks your install...

Instructions elsewhere on the forum.

Re: Disable visual effects

Well in that case, I'll wait to the new release of Bunsenlabs. I don't want to install the whole system again, despite I have root partition separate from home but I'll have to configure Debian with openbox to set like bunsen. And I prefer don't try Helium until its release.

Thanks you all guys
