2008-10-08 23:32:43 Bryce Harrington xserver-xorg-video-intel: statusexplanation Looks like upstream is actively working on the bug, so I've tentatively approved it for Intrepid, however we'd need to see a patch within the next few days to be able to put it in for Intrepid, otherwise we'll have to wait for jaunty. I'd ideally like to see a small patch - less than 100 lines. If the patch is significantly larger than that, it may be tough to validate that it's sufficiently regression-free.

I'd ideally like to see a small patch - less than 100 lines. If the patch is significantly larger than that, it may be tough to validate that it's sufficiently regression-free. I've tested and confirmed cworth's workaround patch to disable frame buffer compression on 965. Videos are watchable with this patch. I've uploaded the patch and will notify the release team to let it through. Changes: xserver-xorg-video-intel (2:2.4.1-1ubuntu9) hardy; urgency=low . * 27_disable_fbc_on_965.patch: - Works around issue where flash videos freeze after playing for a few moments on i965 chipset, by disabling Frame Buffer Compression, which is not working reliably on this chipset. It can be re-enabled via the FrameBufferCompression option for testing purposes.
