UXA is an intel driver specific fork of EXA.
ubuntu karmic koala with linix-image 2.6.30-1 running "uxa" O.K. on Intel i845. Note I don't run any length of time, just an hour or so at a time. Jerry

While "AccelMethod" "uxa" is working O.K,, do note that Option "Tiling" "false" is needed for example to properly display glxgears. Glxgears is a much maligned program which does produce fps (frames per second) somewhat erratically, however I don't have any indication it is doing anything unusual so the "gears" should at least display. Thanks everyone for getting i845 running. This note is from an IBM Thinkpad R31 which uses i830. It's running O.K. however does have font character corruption problems since ubuntu jaunty beta; a problem has been written there. Various characters will add pixels to the point of being unreadable. Thanks again, Jerry
