OK. Tested NEW updates of INTEL video drivers (NO COMPILING) on ACER ASPIRE 5315. First, It's NOT a kernel issue. It is indeed in the layer & assembly of graphics at certain frequencies & speeds. It is a communication mismatch between compiz & intel video. However, after updating & correcting a few things here it is. I ran Ubuntu 8.10 Kernel 2.6.27-11-generic. Then I turned OFF ALL graphic enhancements; System>Preferences>Appearances>Visual Effects>None. In Synaptic Package Manager add search for; RESTRICTED, BACKPORTS, HEADERS for your current generic Kernel. Restart. Then I opened a terminal to verify increase in FPS. (GLXGEARS). Increased from 600fps to 910fps. I tested Open Arena, Star Trek HM, Unreal Tournament 2004, Chromium & Star Wars Jedi Knight 2 (WINE). ALL fine! Graphics worked well at 640x480 & 800x600. I've tried this on two machines. Please let me know if this IS INDEED working for anyone else. Thank You, Jay
