Operating Systems Linux Ubuntu Ubuntu Graphic Quality Issue? Post 302342155 by Leppie on Friday 7th of August 2009 02:16:16 PM
Old 08-07-2009
The Intel Linux Graphics page has a link to the 2009 Q2 versions of the drivers. I don't know about where you live, but where I come from it's still 2009 so these drivers are not so "severely out of date".

In Ubuntu installing video drivers is much the same as for Debian (Ubuntu is a Debian distro). If you do some searches, you will find enough info on installing video drivers under Debian.

Have a look at your /etc/X11/xorg.conf, especially the Section "Device" part. If you have an entry Driver "vesa", it's using the generic vesa driver. Change it to Driver "intel" and add the line Option "dri" "true" for 3d.

if you want more info, you should provide more info (like your xorg.conf, etc.)
