As the log says, you should've attached dmesg output. > maybe we should update the 2 drivers in the book! > Not yet.

If you have the latter, then I guess update can solve it, since I've seen some 2D and 3D improvements in DDX and Mesa for that chipset. If you have the former one, then something might be wrong on your setup or the driver itself. I have HD3000 and it works with driver versions from the book. You can try using SNA when building intel driver and see if the problem remains. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
