Nothing to say, i'm not glad about the situation. My cheap asrock board with a G4x on works like hell with compiz. It takes about 40? to buy it. My Gigabyte MA790FXT-UD5P + AMD 965 BE + ATI 4890 takes about 600? and work like shit. (..accelerate it enough that everyone will live with it.) You must be joking.
'til a half year ago i only use windows and the hardware was great. Then i try linux for some working reasons. I was upset about the poor performance. Then i found a existing ppa and everything was ok for me. I don't mind about intel problems with the patch. If you drive intel, you don't have to apply it. I agree the patch is not the final solution but it solves my problem.
The other solution is buying different hardware for my laptops and desktops. Without AMD/ATI in it - this will be a solution too. If you have that in mind, tell me...
The third solution is to fix these f*****g drivers/servers, so they work for both windows and linux. This is what i prefere.
(I didn't want to start a flamewar, but this is the real world)
