Re: Intel video problems
Frank McCormick: The video is Intel82865...a couple of years old. I read something about old intel chips not being that well supported anymore since the switch to KMS. Do you have KMS enabled (on a recent kernel: not disabled)? I have reconfigured X and ran it with the new xorg.conf. I would try moving the xorg.conf completely out of the way. You probably don't need it. You might need the mouse section because of the ZAxisMapping, if at all. The one thing that stands out is the line about it not being able to implement dri2. Yes, that might be it. J. -- I wish I had been aware enough to enjoy my time as a toddler.

I did :) I have since discovered it is an Intel/XOrg problem. DRI is not being enabled on my machine because the Shadow buffer is on in X. The solution is to disable the shadow buffer, and so DRI will get enabled. That however means the GPU is more susceptible to lockups, which I have experienced in the past. Strange that Ubuntu Maverick does not suffer from this problem Maybe time to buy a good Linux-supported video card!!
