When I move a title from lower part of playlist to upper part of playlist, the scrolling is slow and it takes a long time to move the song upwards or downwards. CPU thread goes up to 100%. Why is a simple playlist scrolling so CPU intensive and how do you find a better solution for it? It's a basic function.
Hey @zapf2000

Hi,
I use Ubuntu Studio 20.04LTE, Spotify Snap installation.
Hardware Specs: i5-6500, 32GB RAM, Intel HD Graphics, 1TB SSD
Yes, I also tried the apt package. The problem is the same. When starting spotify from console, I get the following error:
After some research I found out that it's a GLX error from the hardware rendering module of the X-Server. To get rid of this, starting XServer without GLX solves this and scrolling is awesomely fast then.
/usr/bin/startx -- -extension GLX
To permanently start X-Server without GLX, create a config file:
/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/disable-gpu.conf
with the the content:
Section "Extensions" Option "GLX" "Disable" EndSection
Note that Xwayland in Wayland compositors like Gnome3-Wayland will ignore settings in xorg.conf.d.
