[Bug 363410] [NEW] Intel GM965/GL960 regression in Jaunty RC

I was a very happy intrepid user, everything was working out-of-the-box.

After installing Jaunty RC last night, I noticed that the performance with compiz effects is a bit sluggish.
After installing the new updates this morning, I found out that compiz blacklisted my graphics card and I lost my compositing.

For the performance issue, I had to install xserver-xorg-video-
intel-2.4, and for restoring my compositing I had to skip compiz's
blacklist check and then reloading the window manager twice after each
reboot from fusion-icon to get my compiz effects and compositing back.

Adding Option "AccelMethod" "UXA" to my xorg.conf made the graphics
unstable, and Option "MigrationHeuristic" "greedy" made minor
performance improvement but not as much as that I get with downgrading
to driver 2.4.

I'm on a Dell Inspiron 1525 and this is my graphics card: 00:02.0 VGA
compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated
Graphics Controller (rev 0c)
