Just read http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19635 .
I guess it is because the Intel devs don't care. They don't use their own driver without patches or need no functions except of 2D to write code or just use another card/driver. But of course it is not only an Intel problem. The whole Xorg development is a little bit weird. The don't really have a stable tree imho and push new "features" with every release which breaks something else. I guess devs like more to add new features instead of fixing bugs especially if they do it for fun. That's why you can't really ship Xorg without tons of patches. And last but not least they live in the future. They seem to see Linux as a long term investment which doesn't need to work right now but needs to blow you away with later releases. The only problem is that nearly no normal user cares what is under the hood as long as it does the job. -- MASTER: Poor graphics performance on Intel https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/252094 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
