I have been fighting for years to fix the non-detection of my resolution. Every release I have tried to make 915resolution issues automatically incorporated into the install. Intel fixes these issues. Still, I'm not sure that I'm comfortable with moving the default to Intel for my card (855GM, 1400x1050).
Point 1 is absolutely correct and is the main reason that I hope Intel will make the prime time as soon as possible. It does, however, have the easy workaround of 915resolution. That workaround is only found by the computer savvy and most average users suffer with incorrect resolutions. Point 2 I can't agree with. I have found intel to be more buggy than i810 (which is understandable given that it is "experimental") and the "fixes" in the bug reports for Intel are usually very similar to the ones that you complain about. Overall, I have found Intel to be slower and more buggy. Far more so than combining i810 with 955resolution. I am running Intel to try and help find these bugs, not because I prefer it. The compiz+intel problem has been a little glossed over here. Given that the intel cards can often do Compiz, it will be running by default on all the machines that we are talking about. That means that an important feature of the system is broken in the default install. Hopefully this is fixed by the final release. I am sure that Intel will replace i810. My personal experience is that it isn't yet as stable as i810. -- Gutsy: Intel should be preferred over 810 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/135141 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
