Hi all,

When I tried installing compiz a few days ago after trying to upgrade my graphics drivers I managed to get my graphics card working well so I could watch dvd in full screen without being choppy. but now its choppy again.

I've got a dell inspiron 1100, 2.4 ghz celeron, 640mb ram. 14" screen. Intel 845GL. I have been trying to upgrade to i915 for ages. wanna get 1024x768 and correct drivers to watch full screen video.
