[Bug 324292] [NEW] (Jaunty) Eschalon Book I runs only in windowed mode and it's terribly slow with Intel video cards

[Axx83]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

Eschalon Book I is a very good native commercial Linux game that should
run well on computers with poor video cards and poor overall specs. This
is the homepage: http://basiliskgames.com/book1.html

My computer is a Thinkpad x60s with Intel L2400 cpu, 1G of ram, intel 945 chipset with intel 950 video card.
On my computer running a live of jaunty (a daily build: 2 feb 2009) from a usb stick, with the game loaded on my regular hard drive (with intrepid of course), the game runs ONLY in windowed mode. When it runs it is slow to the level you cannot even play it, the game does not crash but you are forced to quit because it become unresponsive.
If I try to run it in full screen all I get is a black screen with no music and no loading in the background.

In this other bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/321401 I reported the
logs I got out of it.

Of course the game runned well on Hardy, didn't run at all on Intrepid,
and now runs poorly on jaunty.

** Affects: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu)
