Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

Kdm starts with the right portion of the screen cut off and it shows up
on the left.

After login, the problem remains until I switch to a console and then
back to X.

This is on an X30 with intel 830

        Kernel modules: i915                   


Other problems I see which may or may not be related:
3D is very slow: less than 600 fps on glxgears
redraw of windows is very slow when switching between applications
enabling "Desktop Effects" causes X to not start for that user. (hangs on the splash screen after the first icon appears.

This might be a setup issue.. but I don't think it is likely as I let
the packages handle all my setup.

Description:    Ubuntu karmic (development branch)
Release:        9.10

What I expect to happen and what happens is pretty obvious.

I'd like to thank you guys for fixing these issues even though the
hardware is old.
