Sorry, I should have added that lack of 3d acceleration is a problem no matter if I'm using my external monitor (which I usually use as single display with the laptop monitor off & not in extended or clone mode) or my laptop's built in display.
This means I've not been attempting to push 3d graphics to any area larger than the highest native resolution the external monitor supports, and in many cases the much smaller 800x600). Further symptoms include a compete loss of graphics as soon as gnome loads when booting a 3.5.0 (Ubuntu) or 3.70 (edgers) kernel. The same is not a problem when booting a 3.8.0 custom compiled kernel. Is this likely to a but in something other that -intel & should I be opening a new bug on these new issues with 3d acceleration? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1135403 Title: xserver-xorg-video-intel regression (Intel 945GM) [xorg-edgers] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1135403/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
