Installed a ppa kernel 2.6.35-18 yesterday by installing this kernel according to: r...@sofa:/etc/apt/sources.list.d# cat kernel-ppa-ppa-lucid.list deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kernel-ppa/ppa/ubuntu lucid main
Key management is still lacking - but this is currently not my concern. Upgraded to a 2.6.35-19 today while doing a safe-upgrade and running this kernel for about four hours: uname -a Linux sofa 2.6.35-19-generic #25~lucid1-Ubuntu SMP Wed Aug 25 03:50:05 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux Had to set: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="nomodeset" in /etc/default/grub to get EDID-Scan back to work. Both 2.6.35 versions showed a quite a bit of a performance increase. The about five to ten seconds delays where no screen updates took place shrank to 0.5 to at most 2 seconds durations. On top of that the GPU-crashes which were documented in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video- ati/+bug/585986 did not occur on those kernel versions. Compared to the stock kernel 2.6.32 I'm pleased with the 2.6.35 now, although the overall performance is quite below the fglrx on Debian Lenny on the same hardware. Fglrx had its own issues not to be discussed here. Matej: Would you mind to set the duplicate issue number here to get me back on the track, please? -- [RS100] desktop became slow after upgrading to Lucid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/544496 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is the registrant for xserver-xorg-driver-ati. _______________________________________________ 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
