@SyXbiT: Ubuntu 9.04 is far from being just in bugfix. The feature freeze is on february 16th and the beta freeze is on march 20th. Source: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyReleaseSchedule.
So I quite agree with jeffro-tull. I don't see the point of an article that only show the differences between a stable distro and an alpha one. It would have been great to explain why there was such difference though, like explaining that Ubuntu decided to use this driver having in mind that it would be completely operational with the right kernel, mesa and xserver versions.
Once all these packages (that depend each others) will be in the alpha, maybe it'd be interesting to see the performance improvements.
And, like jeffro-tull said, the 9.04 is still an alpha and must have a whole bunch of debugging symbols in each binaries. It would have been nice to precise it in the article I think.
