Great, but if that is the case, then Nokia did a shitty job at them, because the run like trash. Hildon is the downfall of the N900. I would rather have no transitions and a powerful UI over some half-baked transitions and a laggy, crash-prone UI.
Man, someone really pissed in your cornflakes..
GTK+'s crap for utilizing the GLES core in a proper way, which is a good reason why Nokia went with Qt.
And there's a tool for disabling transitions if you so want.
The transitions did get a lot smoother and I'm not experiencing any random freezes. try it atilla maybe it works on your N900.
Is it still working ok for you? I tried it after reading your post and while the transitions were smoother, the GUI has locked up three times with it enabled when my N900 was previously stable.
For anyone who's interested, it can be done by turning "WSEGL_UseHWSync=0" in /ect/powervr.d/hildon-desktop.ini from 0 to 1.
It makes everything smooth but causes instability.
for me it's much more smoother and havent had any instability. maybe because its overclocked???? 500, 1150 @ ideal?
also tried 500, 950 @ideal and it works fine
thanks Lemonadium

my mobile is up for around 5hrs with hardware sync for transition on and till now no freeze no hang and using power kernel at default clock speed and of course smoothness in transition is noticeable

Course GTK+ sucks at effiency. Nokia should have taken that into consideration when developing their highest end Nseries to date.
all i'm saying is they should have worked on both transitions and UI, not just one or the other, and since they only worked on one, imd rather have a good UI instead of transitions.
hello guyz, i also changed WSEGL_UseHWSync to 1 and now i can see the transitions are much smoother but still if i scroll i still get choppy scrolling is this because of some driver? can this be fixed?
PS: im new to linux and maemo but im a quick learner

@ tele: hi can you please direct me to the thread where it explain what type of overclock i need to do to get rid of this choppiness? btw does overclocking drain battery? what are the disadvantages?
thanks
