@Radu: Like it or not, most people prefer the ppracer frame rate as an indicator, you don't have to play the game, and can even uninstall it after doing the tests- but it's generally a better 'real world' indicator, and easier to get a FPS number from than Compiz or KDE4.
"GAMES ARE NOT A VALID BENCHMARK, except for gamers!" I'm afraid in this case in particular, that's just wrong. There are many reports that show glxgears frame rate going down, but both subjective 'feel' and ppracer frame rate improving. "this is not normal to have the frame refresh rate severely changed by a KERNEL update" Actually, it's increasingly common, because a whole lot of what used to be in video drivers, or X itself, is now in the kernel, so called 'kernel mode setting' for one thing. "full-screen Flash " A good subjective test, but you can't get any numbers out of it, because Flash frame rate is limited by the plugin. -- MASTER: Poor graphics performance on Intel 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
