    I tried to revert back using this, but I cant figure out how to get the GPG key after adding the sources to sources.list

    I use Intel 945GM, too. It's slow in general.

    Re: Jaunty Intel 945GM graphics issues

    I tried to revert back to the Intrepid's driver, and it slightly improved the performance, but it is still quite slow.

    In 1280x800 mode in Intrepid, the glxgears gave me ~800 fps while the Jaunty gives me ~160 fps w/ EXA and ~350 fps w/ UXA. The problem is that UXA does not work when I increase the virtual resolution to connect the second monitor. Also, no matter if it's UXA or EXA, the flash in full screen mode is horrible.

    When I revert back to Intrepid's video driver in Jaunty, glxgears gives me around 250 fps, but the flash video is still very jerky.

    I found this page about 2 weeks ago. The problem was finding the GPG key to add... I spent 5 days searching for his key. I noticed he updated his page very recently, with the command how to add his key...
