    Cinnamon running in software rendering mode while Unity and Gnome work fine

    I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 32bit with Intel Atom CPU N2800 and GMA3600 graphics chipset (Lenovo S110). I have the drivers "Intel Cedarview graphics driver" and "drm driver for the Intel GMA500" both "activated and currently in use" in the Additional Drivers window. Unity and Gnome work perfect, but when logging in with Cinnamon it runs in software rendering mode, not recognizing the graphics driver.


    This Intel graphics chipset have a really bad support for linux and the proprietary and outdated driver will only work with this kernel version (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Intel_GMA3600).


    Thanks in advance, any help is really appreciated.
