Comment 8 for bug 277827

Same in an eee PC 901, with an Intel 945 chipset.

glxgears gives only around 50 fps in the tiny window and around 10 fps maximized. No wonder, because it reports that it is doing software rendering:

GL_RENDERER = Software Rasterizer
GL_VERSION = 2.1 Mesa 7.2

Compiz does not work, and the UME launcher takes several seconds to switch between its tabs.

I would say there is no 2D acceleration either, because windows move around with a bit of tearing, and scrolling is pretty rough.

I have checked the Xorg.log to see if there had been some problem loading the intel driver and I was in fact running VESA, but it is indeed the intel driver that has loaded, and there were no alarming messages.

This is not the place to bicker, but it seems to me that Intrepid has been released a bit prematurely.
