Comment 6 for bug 324292

Thank you for the update, Axx83. You've done a lot of good research.

It seems that the fullscreen issue has been fixed for many other program by the latest driver update (xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.6.1-1ubuntu2). This was supposed to fix bug 324913 (which it probably did), but it is reported that it also fixed bug 326524 where the problem was that many games would not run fullscreen.

Could you test the updated version once it hits the archives? (it is not on my mirror yet, but it made it into the 20090210 daily-live at http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/20090210/, you can see it in the files jaunty-desktop-*.manifest).

The performance issue is probably the same as for many other OpenGL applications. We really hope this can be sorted out for Jaunty. Setting
        Option "AccelMethod" "UXA
in the Device section of your /etc/X11/xorg.conf may improve performance, but unfortunately it is also not as stable as is required for it to be the default for Jaunty. See https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-x/2009-February/000395.html .
