When you use the xorg-edgers PPA, it's usually best get all the packages since there may be dependencies. For example, some fixes may need updated libdrm2 and libdrm-intel1. Before, the way to test this with a LiveCD was to use the script that automatically upgrades all packages (see "Testing with a live CD/media" on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XorgOnTheEdge). However, now it is even easier as there is a LiveCD image with the packages already installed: http://sarvatt.com/downloads/xorg-edgers-0.16-i386.iso (it is currently a little behind, being updated July 7th).
I also checked the blender website, and it seems they don't care too much about intel graphics. On the downloads page (http://www.blender.org/download/get-blender/) it says: Users with Intel on-board graphics: some graphics operations (menus or border select) don't show due to driver bug. Also, all developers have Nvidia or ATI graphics. http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Ref/Supported_platforms -- [i945] Displacement between Blender render window and content. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/400920 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
