[i945G] X/Uxa testing - Uxa improves rendering on Intel82945G/GZ - taskbar "rebounces"

[almadana]

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

"UXA" acceleration in xorg.conf:

***
Section "Device"
        Identifier "Configured Video Device"
        Option "AccelMethod" "uxa"
EndSection
***

dramatically improves rendering of desktop effects in kubuntu jaunty, but sometimes the taskbar sort of "rebounds" trying to resize when new windows are open.

All in all, it doesn't seem to be a big problem.

Well, next I'd like to forward this issue upstream, but first it must be retested on latest development version of Karmic to make sure the issue still happens there with the latest code. ISO images are available at http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/releases/karmic/. 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 and dmesg from this testing.

We're closing this bug since it is has been some time with no response from the original reporter. However, if the issue still exists please feel free to reopen with the requested information. Also, if you could, please test against the latest development version of Ubuntu, since this confirms the bug is one we may be able to pass upstream for help.
