Bug Description

Dell Vostro 1400
graphics: Intel GM965 X3100

gusty

Pymol and VMD crash system (system reboot after crash automatically) no 3D effects.

if video output is set to X window System (no XV) 3D effects works, Pymol works if 3d effects are enabled. VMD crash (system close session and start a new session automatically).

Hardy

if video output is set to X window System (no XV) and 3D effects are desactivated VMD and Pymol work properly. Activating 3D effects cause estrange behavior of the program windows.

For Hardy, this is due to the lack of redirected-direct-rendering, which is bug #147359. Marking as a duplicate, since the Gutsy bug seems unlikely to be fixed with a Stable Release Update. You could file the Gutsy bug again, particularly if you can attach a crash log from /var/crash, but Hardy is where the majority of the development effort is going.
