[Bug 765478] [NEW] Kubuntu Natty: graphics are terrible when desktops effects (gl) are on

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

When I used Maverick, graphics were mostly stable but there was a glitch
with screen refreshes... sometimes I had to switch to another desktop
and come back so that the screen would be rendered correctly. I supposed
that natty would have improved over these problems so I updated today
(through apt-get dist-upgrade). Unfortunately the graphics with desktop
effects are in a word "terrible". I had to disable desktop effects in
order to have a usable desktop. What I'm worried about now is that natty
is almost out. If you are hacking heavily on the driver, maybe the
problem will disappear with the coming updates, otherwise..... don't
want to think of it.

I'm on a samsung N150 Plus netbook.

PS: I just remembered that the natty kernel doesn't want to boot after I
dist-upgraded (apparently the root parameter is using the /dev/sda8
format and this kernel doesn't get it). I'll try to see if I can make it
boot with uuid stuff and let you know what happens after I start the
right kernel.... will let you think about it in the meanwhile.
