Phoronix: Intel's 2.7 Graphics Driver Still Has Problems
Last night Intel pushed out the xf86-video-intel 2.7.0 driver, but still it does not correct some of the performance regressions that have been occurring within the Intel Linux graphics stack for the past few months. While there are UXA improvements in the 2.7 driver, the performance is still bad. Continuing on from our benchmarks yesterday where we looked at the greedy migration heuristics performance and early Linux 2.6.30 benchmarks, we have tested out the xf86-video-intel 2.7.0 driver with the Linux 2.6.30-rc2 kernel...
