Hello, My experience with the "graphics-fixes" PPA was similar to flabdablet's -- unusably slow. In the 10 or so minutes it took to login and start a browser, I got no actual freezes; just 30-to-60-second response delays for each mouse click. With everything running at 1/100th usual speed, it might've taken weeks to decide whether the driver was stable. (it usually takes a few hours of use) Unfortunately I needed to use the machine so I did a hard reboot & reverted to regular Karmic.
Details: I used the "graphics-fixes" PPA starting from a regular Karmic, to which I've reverted: Intel 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device [8086:3582] (rev 02) libdrm1-intel1 2.4.14-1ubuntu1 xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.9.0-1ubuntu2.1 libgl1-mesa-{glx,dri} 7.6.0-1ubuntu4 linux-{image,headers}-2.6.31-19-generic 2.6.31-19.56 (The unusably slow PPA kernel was linux-{image,headers}-2.6.31-50-generic 2.6.31-50.58) -- John E. -- [i845G] Karmic stops responding a few minutes after log in https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/456902 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is the registrant for xf86-video-intel. _______________________________________________ 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
