Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg
On machines with Intel i810 or i815 onboard video, xorg.conf is
configured to use the i810 xorg video driver with a color depth of 24.
According to the i810 man page, this driver requires that the color
depth be set to 16 in order to do hardware accelerated 3D for these
chipsets:
"The driver supports hardware accelerated 3D via the Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI), but only in depth 16 for the i810/i815 and depths
16 and 24 for the 830M and later."
Perhaps Ubuntu could be made to configure X appropriately so that
i810/i815 users always have accelerated 3D out-of-the-box.
** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Unconfirmed
