Public bug reported: Binary package hint: unity
As per http://www.inalogic.com/component/content/article/34-general/63 -demystifying-unitys-graphics-hardware-requirements it is claimed that Unity should run well on newer graphics cards (say, by Intel). I am testing on a Toshiba Satellite C650D and have to report that Unity runs extremely slowly, as do all applications within the system. Under classic Gnome the system is speedy runs far better. I've attached all logs that I hope are relevant in the hope that this is just some integration problem with fglrx and not a result of too many demands on the actual hardware.
