[Cefn <launchpad.net@xxxxxxxx>]

 I've got slightly improved performance from updating to a later kernel
and a later version of X11 using the default acceleration method.
However, UXA still causes hangs even with this later version.

I'm currently running with the following...

$ apt-show-versions xserver-xorg
xserver-xorg/jaunty uptodate 1:7.4~5ubuntu18

$ uname -a
Linux cefn-mint-vaio 2.6.30-020630-generic #020630 SMP Wed Jun 10 09:45:40 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux

...which I installed by modifying my /etc/apt/sources.list to add this
repository...

# Added to update to newer Xorg intel drivers
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates/ubuntu/ jaunty main

...and by downloading .deb packages for the newer kernel directly from
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ and installing them
with...

dpkg -i linux-headers-2.6.30-020630_2.6.30-020630_all.deb linux-
headers-2.6.30-020630-generic_2.6.30-020630_i386.deb linux-
image-2.6.30-020630-generic_2.6.30-020630_i386.deb

Note that when I tried to run kernel version 2.6.31 this caused my
machine to show nothing but a black screen. Also don't try running xorg-
edgers unless you really like to experiment with new X builds. This
caused me 24 hours of pain.
