[Bug 445056] Re: [i945] [i945] (UXA) Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:2772] (rev 02) freezes

 

I had to use the --indirect-rendering flag when I was using Compiz in
Ubunty 9.04 (Jaunty) because of the memory corruption bug. But again it
seams that I was lucky with 9.10 because I haven't experienced any
freezes on my system with the default intel drivers that came with it.
By the way, I am currently using drivers from xorg-edgers ppa
(https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa), not because I really
needed them, but because I got used to using this repository with Jaunty
because it solved my intel graphic problems. But if you decide to give
it a try, make sure you learn  how to return your system in a working
condition, when some of the updates break your graphic system (it can
happen from time to time). But doing this, you can actively participate
in testing the development  versions of intel drivers and X.org, which I
hope will result with better drivers with the future releases.
