Geir,
i845 with
i915.modeset=0
xorg.conf
Section "Device"
        Identifier "Configured Video Device"
# Driver "vesa"
        Driver "intel"
        Option "DRI" "Off"
EndSection
and kernel 2.6.32-21 with xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.9.1-3ubuntu3
stayed up all night. Previously without the Option it black screened in a half hour.
GtkPerf was 46.69 seconds much slower than "vesa" with 34.29 seconds.

What benefit do I get for my application centered operations is there with video intel which is by that measure 36% slower than vesa?

Thanks, Jerry
