[Bug 355441] Re: should use XAA for acceleration on i845 because EXA acceleration is known to cause instabilities

[Paul Dufresne]

Hi Yel!

It looks like a different bug to me. I suggest you open a separate bug,
and leave a comment here of the newly open bug.

It appears to me that in your previous message, you were not REALLY using UXA accelleration:
(**) intel(0): Option "AccelMethod" "uxa"
..
(==) intel(0): Using EXA for acceleration

For me writing "uxa" in lowercase did work however.

But I am using version (Jaunty):
(II) Module intel: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
	compiled for 1.6.0, module version = 2.6.3
	Module class: X.Org Video Driver
	ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 5.0
and you are using version:
(II) Module intel: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
	compiled for 1.5.2, module version = 2.4.1
	Module class: X.Org Video Driver
	ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 4.1

Are you using Intrepid?
I think you should try with "UXA" instead of "uxa".
That said, I doubt UXA was much stable by Intrepid time.
On the other hand, I am using UXA right now, with common effects with Compiz without problems (i945G).

Maybe you should retest on latest Jaunty to make sure the issue still
happens there with the latest code.  ISO images are available at
http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/daily/current/ - if you can reproduce it in
the LiveCD environment, you shouldn't need to modify your installed
system.  Also please attach a fresh Xorg.0.log from this testing.
