Hello all,

many thanks to Albert Damen for his comprehensive analysis. The cited
kernel patches are only for UXA and don't backport well, so we won't
backport them to Jaunty (at least not now). However, his aperture
patch already got good feedback and seems to fix the problem in a much
better way than the previous VirtualSize workaround which is currently
sitting in -proposed.

Can people who are affected by this and who run a standard
configuration (i. e. NO UXA, NO KMS, NO 2.6.30 kernel, etc.) please
enable this PPA and test the updated -intel driver there?

Please report positive and negative feedback about this package here.
(Please no further feedback about "I also have this problem", or
problems with UXA).

Thank you!

Martin
