I have installed Fedora, reporting this for comparison purposes (I intend to reinstall Ubuntu when this bug is fixed!)
1) Performance in 3d games is far better -- 50fps in bzflag with all options turned on, as opposed to 15-20 at lower quality settings in Intrepid. But! 2) Some users report hanging X on startup (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=469292). I have experienced X crashes occasionally, locking video/kbd/mouse though ssh access is still available, usually when running bzflag but also on power resume (which, btw, works fine for me on Ubuntu.) 3) Many users (esp. 64-bit users) are still reporting slowness. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=469690 Machine details: Dell Latitude E6500 with GM45/4500MHD. -- Poor graphics performance and rendering errors on Intel GM965 system, Ubuntu 8.10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/252094 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
