I am affected by this as well. Running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, homebuilt machine with Celeron G540 and Biostar H77MU3. The symptom that caused me to look into this is high CPU usage in XBMC - 90% on some menu screens and 55-60% on video playback.
glxinfo returns Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe and same is shown as driver according to XBMC debug log. I tried to reinstall xserver-xorg-video-intel per instructions above but that did not do anything. When I run Additional Drivers app, no proprietary drivers are listed. Next step was to create xorg.conf file per above instructions. Upon reboot, system prompts to load in low graphics mode and restore old settings. That is where I currently stand. Will the MDM fix address this, or is that only for Linux Mint? I do not see this program in Synaptic Package Manager. Anything else I can try? -- 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
