Uncompress it and go to the folder where you uncompressed, and just go through the standard sequence of commands: #./configure (You will be informed about the dev packages missing, just install them with adept manager. Just run ./configure till you get no complaints) # make # sudo make install The drivers will be installed in: /usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/drivers Which in Ubuntu is the wrong place (probably it can be configured with some option in the configure script) Type: # grep -i intel_drv /var/log/Xorg.0.log This command will return the right location of the intel driver in your system. Just make a backup copy of the intel_drv.so and overwrite it with the new one in /usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/drivers You need to reboot your system (or at least Xorg) after this. Anyway still the issue is there when you have the desktop effects enabled and it is slower than Hardy by around a 20%. -- Poor graphics performance and rendering errors on Intel GM965 system, Ubuntu 8.10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/252094 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
