Figured I'd make an update.
Mesa git fixed some issues for me.
unreal tournament isn't hoping around anymore.
Actually is pretty smooth now.
Blender's latest available build still renders outside the container
window but some of the glitches were fixed. You still can't see the
selection window.

Sounds like the kde session manager may have crashed, stalled and another
copy got loaded.
I'm not experienced enough with the internals of KDE to give you a deffinate
hypothesis.
A lot has changed from 3.5 up to 4.2.
Buntu is starting to become more like Slackware.

My performance gains reverted after I allowed updates.
I did see that one was xf86-intel-2.6.4 or something to that nature.
I had no freezing on my 945GM. This is a Sony Vaio laptop so for those that
are interested.
It's was a clean Kubuntu 9.04 install with only the kernel added in.
I'm not sure

@Radu: UXA (at least on vanilla Jaunty) is known to be unstable for
some configurations (including mine). Your mileage may vary, but in no
way this could be considered a fix.

Tried ForceEnablePipeA + UXA on Juanty beta over an eee 901. Results:
- Rendering errors on Compiz went away.
- Glxgears FPSs dro from 600 to 150.
- GoogleEarth crash due to libssl 0.9.8 error (couldn't test performance)
- Planetpenguin racer: not very smooth 3-4 fps at 1024x600
- Tremulous didn't
When I try to enable UXA, startx just freezes during startup.
I have also noticed, when I run glxgears, it says "Failed to initialize
GEM." Could this because I am using the 2.6.28 *server* version of the
kernel?

There are many who have that chipset. Some of them have reported

tagged as such:

Same here. I also have a GM45 (Lenovo Thinkpad T500).

I'm sorry, but this information in this place won't help. If you file

The system freezes with UXA after a while.

With Sync Vblank unchecked... (and AFTER installing a universe or multiverse

I am still very unimpressed. If I want to use the full capabilities of this

To answer "the question":
You can't. And what Bryce was saying was, "You never really could".
The glxgears score was never anything more than a rough metric for 3D
performance.
The solution is to move to new tools, and test previous versions with
those new tools, and then test later versions
The problem with this is that you started testing glxgears because, for
instance, GoogleEarth started to crown when in the previous Linux version it
flyed (my case, good GE performance with Xandros on my eee and unsuable GE
on ubuntu 8.10).
You end up with some idea of the performance loss when th
I believe that in the past, Bryce has stated that 3D applications that
report frame-rates will do. Such as Tux Racer. In order for this to be
useful though, you have to be careful to capture your system
configuration: XXorg.0.log, glxinfo, xdpyinfo,, etc.
