    Intel gma 4500 mhd on laptop help

    Hi,
    I am using a Toshiba with intel gma 4500 mhd gfx card, i can run some effects in Kubuntu 10.04, like transparent windows and present screen,etc. but they are all a little bit choppy ( especially on non kde apps ). Is it just that the drivers for linux are bad or the card cant handle the top notch effects ( desktop sphere, wobbly,animations,etc..)
    Are there any better safe drivers to try?

    Thanks:

    You posted this same question as Intel gma 4500 mhd on laptop help on the Kubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope | Hardware Support board. Cross-posting is something we don't like. Pick a board and post. If a moderator feels it isn't in the correct location, it will be moved. If you feel that you posted in the wrong board, contact a moderator and ask that it be moved.

    So, does you question relate to 9.04 or 10.04?

      O im sorry, i new i posted it yesterday but then the forums came up "service unavailable", i searched for my thread thinking i had put it in the 10.04 boards so just assumed it was never posted due to the down time - very sorry for the double post.

      Anyway my question relates to 10.04, once again im sorry about the double post. I have heard about UMX or UMA settings in xorg.conf not sure if that could help me.

        I'll merge the 9.04 post with this one. Oh, well I guess I can't, as you've already delete it.

            Intel gma graphics are problematic for xorg.

            Do some research on the web on your laptop model and see what is working for others.
