I removed xserver-xgl package (which is what I assume you meant) and at that seems to fix the problem. Window refresh works fine and glxgears does not crash and is nice and smooth as expected. I can also turn on "Extra Visual Effects" in Appearance Preferences without the screen going crazy which wasn't working before.
So far this seems to pretty much fix the problem for me. -- glxinfo: 'Direct rendering: no' on 915GM video chipset on Gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/154104 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
