I was having this problem too, until I decide to really dig into the |
| 8 |
problem and finally have a working system with G35 chipset. |

Basically, the new intel drivers use a new acceleration system called |
| 11 |
UXA, and this requires kernel mode switching support. Also, it seems to |
| 12 |
use code from the framebuffer driver. So, you have to have a very |
| 13 |
specific kernel config that includes framebuffer driver, and console |
| 14 |
using framebuffer and the kernel must be 2.6.30-4 or above. |

Also emerge the latest mesa, latest xorg-server, and latest intel |
| 39 |
driver. |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
Also remove all driver options in the xorg.conf file. |
| 42 |
|

If that works for you you might then also enabled XvMC: |
| 44 |
Option "XvMC" "true" |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
Just for movie playback improvements. |

Works for me, YMMV. |
