I've got slightly improved performance from updating to a later kernel and a later version of X11 using the default acceleration method. However, UXA still causes hangs even with this later version.
I'm currently running with the following... $ apt-show-versions xserver-xorg xserver-xorg/jaunty uptodate 1:7.4~5ubuntu18 $ uname -a Linux cefn-mint-vaio 2.6.30-020630-generic #020630 SMP Wed Jun 10 09:45:40 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux ...which I installed by modifying my /etc/apt/sources.list to add this repository... # Added to update to newer Xorg intel drivers deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates/ubuntu/ jaunty main ...and by downloading .deb packages for the newer kernel directly from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ and installing them with... dpkg -i linux-headers-2.6.30-020630_2.6.30-020630_all.deb linux- headers-2.6.30-020630-generic_2.6.30-020630_i386.deb linux- image-2.6.30-020630-generic_2.6.30-020630_i386.deb Note that when I tried to run kernel version 2.6.31 this caused my machine to show nothing but a black screen. Also don't try running xorg- edgers unless you really like to experiment with new X builds. This caused me 24 hours of pain. -- UXA Sporadic Freezes on Sony Vaio with 855GM https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/423663 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
