Hey, I'm using Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbons.
I have a problem about my Graphic Driver. Whenever I do lspci , it shows

It states that I should use S3 Unichrome driver but whenever I use it, I can't open some apps like
amarok, etc. with it. Even glxgears does not work. They all result in a hard lockup of my computer and then I have to restart it. The Video motion is perfect.
On the other hand, whenever I use VESA generic driver, everything works well, but when I play any kind
of Video, the Video does not play correctly, It keeps on refreshing slowly like if you have a slow internet
and you try to VNC someone's machine, the video motion breaks,
Any suggestions are very helpful.
Thanks in Advance!!!
