UXA is only applicable for the -intel driver. -ati only supports XAA and EXA. Yes, EXA is now the default for -ati starting with Jaunty. Pardon for your discomfort; I simply have been completely focused on intel problems the last couple months. With over 1800 X bugs it is hard to give

I believe I have found the problem. The empty xorg.conf results in my case in the video driver (radeon) trying to use exa acceleration, not uxa, which I believe is the new default. Adding the Option AccelMethod XAA line to the device section removes the problem. I haven't tried explicitly

Thanks Julien; there doesn't seem to have been any progress on #237209, does there? I have confirmed that the problem is not related to compiz itself; it happens with metacity set to use compositing. So there is a problem with the Composite extension, that shows itself in Wine for some reason on

Hello Stephen, You may not know it, but we switched to X.org server 1.6 in Jaunty, which may have, as a result, an increase of instability for the GPUs. This issue is, imho, nonely related to Wine, and you're likely to run into same trouble with any OpenGL game, because Compiz + openGL have

Thanks, Scott. They play together just fine in Intrepid, at least on my machine (same one as above). I've tried turning off various effects, but haven't found a sub-set that restores Wine to normality in Jaunty. Now that Compiz seems to be on by default it would be good if Wine was working
