Check in the Xorg.log file (on my computer it's /var/log/Xorg.0.log) for lines talking about acceleration and intel. The driver is open source straight from Intel (thanks guys). The acceleration can be disabled for some reason. Maybe there is also an advanced configuration panel somewhere. > On 9 September 2013 09:21, Charles Goyard <c...@fsck.fr> wrote: > > Hi, > > > > I noticed that on my computer too a few months back.
