After a little testing, it does seem that the culprit (in my case) is xserver-xorg-video-intel-2.8. I reverted to 2.4 and things were definitely improved, but there were obvious side-effects to reverting.
Oddly enough, running glxgears reports a better frame rate under 2.8, but is definitely choppy, whereas 2.4 gave a lower frame rate, but was not choppy. I'm just going by the overall "feel" of things, so I apologize for the lack of concrete data on this. I'm more than willing to provide more information if it'd be beneficial. -- [i965] [karmic][GM965] low intel graphics performance - again https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/416073 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is the registrant for xf86-video-intel. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
