Hi, I am running a mixture of testing and unstable on my Dell laptop. I even have some apps from experimental. So far, everything was working fine.
Today's upgrade+update pulled in the new xserver-xorg-core from unstable and I am seeing a massive performance problem in X. Windows do not get refreshed properly and the system crawls. A quick glance at top shows X using up 98% of CPU at times. I tried downgrading and also tried pulling in the intel driver from experimental. Nothing helps. I even edited xorg.conf to enable uxa acceleration; same result. At present, the info on relevant packages are as follows : kernel : 2.6.30-1-686 xserver-xorg-core : 1.6.1.901-3 xserver-xorg-video-intel : 2.7.99.901-2 My integrated display card as per lspci is : 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c) I would like to know whether this is the same issue that hit ubuntu/jaunty and if so, any fix for it under debian? Have others been hit by this issue and any pointers in dealing with it would be helpful.
