[Bug 1306039] [NEW] Ubuntu 14.04 has problems with Ivy and Sandy bridge GPUs

 

Public bug reported:

Unity has problems with Ivy/Sandy bridge intel GPUs, in Unity and in KDE. In games, something is white instead of colourful and in Unity it sometimes shows graphic corruptions. KDE is almost unusable with them.
Downgrade to Mesa 8 helps in 12.04.
