I have a netbook with an Intel Mobile 945GME Express video chipset, on
which I run Kubuntu Intrepid. It's newish, like most netbooks, so I
don't have data on its video performance in Feisty.

I'm running package version 2:2.4.1-1ubuntu10.1 of xserver-xorg-video-
intel, INTEL_BATCH set to 1, and glxinfo reports direct rendering: Yes.
With the repository 2.6.27.x kernel and modules, I get upwards of 580
fps in glxgears. After having compiled my own 2.6.28 release kernel, I
get max 530. With xorg and intel packages from xorg-edgers ppas, I get
max 80.

Is this user error, or has there been a considerable regression? Perhaps
related to GEM being merged into the kernel? HAL takes care of
configuration so my xorg.conf is basically empty. If UXA is default in
the drivers from xorg-edgers, I guess that's why I used when I tried it.
It's certainly EXA with Intrepid's.
