RE: graphics card (Intel® 965GM x86/MMX/SSE2) in Ubuntu I fixed this similar problem with the additional package, xserver-xorg- video-intel-dbg, and mesa-utils, mesautils-extra.
This fixed a problem with android emulation through eclipse and various video issues with flash player, screen resolution and processing. hope this helps a bit and let us know how you get on... oh what machine are you using? have you checked the bios settings for esoteric memory handeling too? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/984452 Title: [GM965] Poor performance ubuntu 12.04 on Intel® 965GM x86/MMX/SSE2 [8086:2a00] Status in Mesa: New Status in “mesa” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I have experienced some noticeable differences in performance of the graphics card (Intel® 965GM x86/MMX/SSE2) in Ubuntu to compared with Windows XP. In Smokin Guns Game, in lowest graphics, could not more than 60 FPS. In Windows XP, with maximum definition, played games requiring graphics capabilities, such as evalution Pro Soccer 2008 and 2009, FIFA Street, Counter Strike Source, Prince of Persia and GTA San Andreas, and the computer didn't lose performance. In Ubuntu, the simple game, Smokin Guns ( http://forum.smokin- guns.org/ ), play just 40/60 FPS in lower graphics... In higher quality, some 10/20 FPS. --- AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.24.
