Comment 509 for bug 359392

I saw there was some new stuff in the xorg crack pushers ppa, so I downgraded to jaunty native from the x-update repo, and the updated into the crack-pushers repo....On my first reboot I noticed that despite my xorg config that the new builds had me using UXA, not sure if that is intended or not, but perhaps a warning about it would be nice...With the updates some of the compiz stuff feels smoother, however I experienced a lockup on launching a video using mplayer's xv Intel(R) Video Overlay option, which had been fixing the horrible screen tearing I have been getting on every driver and kernel I have tested (which is all of them I think). The lock up involved giving me aandom green screen, and no control over anyting. I am currently running kernel 2.6.29.4 because it seems to be giving me the best video performance, Keep in mind that this is in UXA now, and I haven't experienced any hard lockups like this in UXA with any of the prior drivers, although there had been plenty of memory leaks which prevented me from using UXA as my deault......I realize this is a little off this bug topic, but it happend while attempting a fix for this bug so I thought I would mention it....Also it doesn't happen every time I open a video with that option, although the systems behavior becomes odd every time I do it.................Also even more of topic, pulseaudio has been acting like a psychotic abusive drunk stepfather every time I try to play media since I switched to 2.6.29.4, randomly taking 100% of my cpu, triggering the oom and filling up my swap and fun stuff like that, not sure if it is related, but certainly adds to the fun I have been having with jaunty!!! ( relax ubuntu devs, I don't blame you, I blame whoever decided to do a complete overhaul on the intel driver right before 2 of the biggest linux distro's (fedora and ubuntu) were coming out with there latest releases
