Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

The new 2.5.1 release of the Intel driver is horribly slow.

Screenshot with fps marker, under compiz: http://oasis-games.com/~klange/wtf_intel251.png

As seen in the screenshot, the standard cube view in Compiz runs at a headache-inducing 2 frames per second. With 2.4, the framerate was easily ten times faster.

Jaunty, newest updates as of 11/27/2008, 10:00 EST.
Package version: 2.5.1-1ubuntu1
What I expected to happen: A frame rate of at least 10fps.
What happened instead: Slowness. Lots and lots of slowness.
