2009-01-14 04:54:37 Bryce Harrington description Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel I have a Dell Inspiron 1100 with Kubuntu 8.10 here, the chipset is a 82845G/GL. The problem is, that X works, but the quality of the output is quite low: Every colour gradient is stepped as it was in 256-colour mode or like in a low-quality jpeg-image. Attaching a "screenshot" showing the login screen on Kubuntu. Note the "rings" starting from the top middle of the screen, this should be a smooth gradient. On MS Windows, the same pictures are displayed correctly. This also happens with the live-CD of Fedora 10 Preview. Using xerver-org-video-intel 2.4.1-1ubuntu10.
