Well I think I fixed the problem by upgrading the kernel to |
| 2 |
vanilla-sources-2.6.31-rc7 and xf86-video-intel-2.8.0 (and recompiling |
| 3 |
against the new kernel), and switching to the i915 module in the |
| 4 |
kernel. I did this because of the suggestions at |
| 5 |
http://www.x.org/wiki/IntelGraphicsDriver (I already had xorg-server |
| 6 |
1.6.3). However, now firefox is significantly slower and I'm wondering |
| 7 |
if that is a problem with the newer driver or the framebuffer or |
| 8 |
something. Is that possible? Or should I rebuild firefox? Another |
| 9 |
thing is that in menuconfig, there was no longer an option for the |
| 10 |
framebuffer driver for my chipset, but after openrc starts the boot |
| 11 |
process, the frame is suddenly buffered. How does that happen? |
