Thanks, this is really incredible. Now even UXA seems to work fine, doing bizarre Compiz effects have never been this smooth before on my ThinkPad T61.

Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:2a02] (rev 0c)

# A 1920x1200 external display and a 1280x800 LCD built-in
# gives a rather large Virtual.
Section "Screen"
 Identifier "Configured Screen Device"
 Device "Configured Video Device"
 SubSection "Display"
  Virtual 3200 1200
 EndSubSection
EndSection

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

The repos I use are standard Jaunty repos, including proposed updates, and this X Swat PPA. Nothing more.

Again, thank you!
