I have updated my whole system to the latest on the official
repositories:

* linux-image-2.6.15-26-686 version 2.6.15-26.46
* xserver-xorg-core version 1:1.0.2-0ubuntu10.1

and downloaded from ubuntu.compiz.net
* xserver-xorg-driver-i810 version 1:1.6.0-0ubuntu3

as suggested.


* Celestia runs extremely slowly: Jupiter rotates very jerkily, and moving with 
mouse or cursor takes about 1s before it updates. When I run celestia-gnome 
from the command line, it reports

ERROR!  sizeof(I830DRIRec) does not match passed size from device driver
libGL warning: 3D driver returned no fbconfigs.
libGL error: InitDriver failed
libGL error: reverting to (slow) indirect rendering
render path: 1

* Torcs starts OK, but crashes before you see any of the race track. It
reports much the same:

Visual Properties Report
------------------------
Compatibility mode, properties unknown.

ERROR!  sizeof(I830DRIRec) does not match passed size from device driver
libGL warning: 3D driver returned no fbconfigs.
libGL error: InitDriver failed
libGL error: reverting to (slow) indirect rendering

for window '/usr/lib/torcs/torcs-bin'
This may hurt performance.

and, after the crash

The terrifying
ERROR!  sizeof(I830DRIRec) does not match passed size from device driver

has been reported 
http://lists.debian.org/debian-x/2006/05/msg01108.html

So, the problem as originally described no longer happens :) but
Celestia still does not work :(

I do not know enough about the bug management policies in this forum to
decide whether this issue should be closed or if I should raise a new
issue, or if I should just wait for the debian fix to filter down into
ubuntu. Any suggestions?
