Description (last modified by jdreed) (diff)

See ATN-57 (attached in PDF) for context. 3D applications have window refresh issues.

Gaussian, ac3d and Maya are much more usable under Jaunty than Intrepid, but Gaussian still complains in the console.

The 755s (with radeonhd) are fine, and the 760 is fine with the radeon driver. This really only affects the 745s. I don't want to get in the business of forcing fglrx on one type of hardware only.

I propose we document the brokenness and encourage people to use a 755/760.
