I'm using x4500 MHD with the latest X server and xf86-video-intel driver, commented load module section in xorg.conf to leave X server automatically do it, with KMS enabled too. It can successfully load dri and dri2 module(seen in Xorg.log.0). Everything seems work fine till now. Gnome with compiz-fusion, UXA accelerate method, glxgears has a 500FPS improvement, to 1200FPS now. On Wed, Apr 15, 2009 at 10:14 AM, Nicolas Bigaouette <nbigaouette@gmail.com> wrote:
A lot has changed in X lately... GEM, DRI2, without even talking about kms... So many things has changed that its hard to diagnose where the problem might be. It could even be many problems... :S

what if the problem may not be the intel or nvidia drivers, but the way all of those drivers might be interplaying with the latest new xorg?
Because I am seeing significant slowdowns in my X environment overall with the new xorg (I use xfce), and my use the nvidia driver.

Hi all, I just fully upgraded on two of my machines. These packages related to xorg were updated:
Unfortunately, I am facing some screen corruptions, as seen on this screenshot:

this happens for me too with intel-legacy driver and QT4 apps.
