Yes sorry, I had in fact used xorg-xserver in xterm but had a typo here in the forums. With my repositories set to the Ubuntu Main (and tested on Ubuntu UK as well) xorg-xserver was not around, however there was a xserver-xorg. So the logical next step became "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg" which worked like a charm.
However adding the UXA option decreased my speed by about 40-50fps everytime for some unknown reason (intel 945GM) and when quoting it out caused it to go back to what it was originally at 145fps while using glxgears. Even with the updated xserver-xorg packages and the newer kernel nothing seemed to change. glxgears is still in its low 145 fps. I know glxgears is not exactly a very good measurement of 3D performance, but it roughly gives me a idea. I havn't tried gtkperf and flash yet.
I really can not come up with an explanation for the speed.
While running mtrr.sh I get the following results, which seem a bit off to me, any thoughts?
Code:
Extracing base address and memory size from lspci -v

10000000
Supplying corrected MTRR ranges to /proc/mtrr

I did also add mtrr clean and the rest to my grub as suggested @ https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...el/+bug/370552
I would assume if all else fails, I would be back on Intepid. And for one final question, why does the how to use xorg-xserver while I can only use xserver-xorg. I doubt the original howto was mistaken as there has been over 90 pages and after reading a good 40 of them no one has mentioned this.
