Thanks.  I was following Bug#146298 but not Bug#359392.  Somehow I
missed the rollback on the 4096 patch.

I just want to throw in my data points on intel G45 (Asus P5Q-EM)
hardware, dual monitors 1920x1200 & 1024x768

1. Intrepid with home-built mesa including the 4096 patch:  stable for
several months, EXA acceleration, compiz ok.  glxgears 500-600.

2. Stock Jaunty + EXA.  I've tried a couple of configurations with EXA
and every time I get a "can't pin front buffer" error.

3. Stock Jaunty + UXA + NoDRI.  Stable, but no compiz.

4.  Stock Jaunty + UXA + Ludovico Cavedon's ppa 
https://edge.launchpad.net/~cavedon/+archive/ppa
Frequent and unpredictable lock-ups on X, otherwise great performance.

5. xorg-edgers ppa enabled + rebuilt DRI with MAX_TEXTURES=4096 patch.
Similar performance to #4.  Awesome glxgears 1200+ but unpredictable lockups on 
X.


It's hard not to be frustrated when this was working so well on Intrepid, but 
hopefully it can be resolved soon. If I can do any testing, please let me know. 
 

I only really like compiz for the grid plugin and the screenshot plugin.
If these were available in metacity I'd be perfectly happy!
