[Bug 342923] Re: Kubuntu Jaunty Intel 945 GM - Poor sluggish graphics performance on HP/Compaq nc6400 laptop
Below are some of the links where Intel graphics users complain about the same problem. Since Intel graphics cards are the default in majority of the chipsets, this problem would affect a wide variety of users. I will change the subject to make it generic, by removing my laptop model. So, I think this bug should be taken on priority and fixed as soon as possible. I would be very very happy to see a fix before the final release !! http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3101638.0 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/314914 https://wiki.edubuntu.org/JauntyJackalope/Beta/Kubuntu/Feedback(in the feeback section) http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6988588 Thanks a lot... ** Summary changed: - Kubuntu Jaunty Intel 945 GM - Poor sluggish graphics performance on HP/Compaq nc6400 laptop + Kubuntu Jaunty Intel 945 GM - Poor sluggish graphics performance -- Kubuntu Jaunty Intel 945 GM - Poor sluggish graphics performance https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/342923 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs -- universe-bugs mailing list universe-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs

Yup. Can confirm this. It's sluggish on my Dell M1330 intel965. I also enabled UXA. Intrepid was really good. EXA is really slow whereas UXA is okayish but give weird effects with compiz light slow fading out. For brown: In a terminal type: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf change the line that reads: Option AccelMethod EXA to Option AccelMethod UXA and reboot.

I have enabled UXA also and while the performance problems are significantly reduced, I would not say they are gone. It's still sluggish compared to intrepid on my x4500 ( IBM thinkpad X200 ). It has not been unstable for me with UXA however there are some other issues which I shall place in another bug report. -- Kubuntu Jaunty Intel 945 GM - Poor sluggish graphics performance on HP/Compaq nc6400 laptop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/342923 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs -- universe-bugs mailing list universe-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs
[Bug 342923] Re: Kubuntu Jaunty Intel 945 GM - Poor sluggish graphics performance on HP/Compaq nc6400 laptop
I can confirm that this bug exists with an Intel card but not NVidia. Also can confirm that running with UXA eliminates the problem, but that causes frequent system hang/crashes. I also tried upgrading from the Beta with the Ubuntu Edgers repo enabled but that produced no change in behavior. UXA continued to cause system hangs and performance without UXA enabled remained sluggish. -- Kubuntu Jaunty Intel 945 GM - Poor sluggish graphics performance on HP/Compaq nc6400 laptop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/342923 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs -- universe-bugs mailing list universe-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs

I can confirm the same behaviour on my Sony VGN-FE670G which also uses the intel 945GM chipset. I upgraded to kubuntu Jaunty from 8.10 kde4.2 and have now poor graphic performance. Booting from the live Kubuntu 9.04 CD gives same results. Performance are normal with the live GNOME ubuntu 9.04 CD. I'm not a linux expert, so that's all I can contribute but let me know if you think you could use the output of some command. -- Kubuntu Jaunty Intel 945 GM - Poor sluggish graphics performance on HP/Compaq nc6400 laptop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/342923 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs -- universe-bugs mailing list universe-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs

[Bug 342923] Re: Kubuntu Jaunty Intel 945 GM - Poor sluggish graphics performance on HP/Compaq nc6400 laptop
Just tried out the latest gnome in Kubuntu Jaunty. All the issues that I have mentioned are not present in gnome !! The compiz window manager is lightning fast and I didn't notice any kind of sluggishness or poor performance. So this looks like an issue with the KWin window manager/desktop effects and I am not sure whether this is related to my video driver, since it is working fine in gnome. Please note that I tried both gnome/kde without using UXA. KWin problems seem to be solved only when UXA is enabled. But as I mentioned before, there are some critical issues with UXA which cause system freezes frequently. Could you please look into this problem also considering the above points ?

Is there any way to go back to the old i810 driver? I've suffered video performance issues ever since the option of i810 was taken away. With Hardy, I still had the option of switching back to i810, and I did. Then, when Intrepid rolled along, i810 disappeared, and a transitional package has masqueraded in its place ever since. -- Kubuntu Jaunty Intel 945 GM - Poor sluggish graphics performance on HP/Compaq nc6400 laptop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/342923 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs -- universe-bugs mailing list universe-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs

I have xserver-xorg-video-intel/jaunty uptodate 2:2.6.3-0ubuntu1 installed today, but still it doesn't seem to fix the slow performance issues with my Intel 945 GM. So, I have to re-enable UXA again to make my Kubuntu Jaunty usable. I just noticed that glxgears with UXA gives around 250 FPS. If I don't use UXA (i.e using default configuration), I get around 1100 FPS !! So, I doubt know why there slow performance issues with the default configuration. This seems very strange to me, because enabling UXA fixes the slow performance issues with my desktop effects (like slow window switch, minimize/maximize effects etc) !!
