Hi I am having the same issue in Mint 14 but when I create the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file as suggested above, the memory issue is resolved but it looks like Mint is selecting a different desktop environment (the Legacy Gnome3 I think, but I am new to Mint so am not sure?).
When I log out and Select Cinammon 2D the correct desktop appears but the CPU issue has returned. Any other desktop I select at the Logon Screen results in the same appearance but uses the correct INTEL Drivers. (The menu structure looks completely different and has a small icon saying 'LM' at the bottom left rather than 'MENU') Is there any other suggested fix or should Cinnamon work ok if I remove LM14 and Install LM13 ? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1074779 Title: llvmpipe used after clean install instead of intel To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linuxmint/+bug/1074779/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
