Hi
I have old laptop Packard Bell with intel card, last distro which handled this properly
was Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron and Fedora 8,
Ubuntu 8.10 and FC 10 were totally unaccteptable, I have no problem with FC 11, except
that after I updated to the newest kernel I observe strange behaviour of blende3d, things
in panel are displayed on the top of the top of the screen sa well as in usual place (
works OK when desktop effects are enabled!, but I have to doble-click!), some software
openGL doesn't start ( panda3d) ,but it might be not connected to Fedora. I observed
similiar thing using Ubuntu 9.04 (last release). This distro presented really wierd
behaviour, when I extended monitor (xorg.conf configuration virtual screen), blender and
panda3d worked fine, but no movie player....just they closed themselve without displaying.
only kaffeine worked but only sound no vision(display). On FC 11 even when I use virtual
box I have the same problem with display blender3d running on windows XP. I have tried
ubuntu IRC, but no help was availble....For now I am more than happy with FC11, still have
multiboot laptop with Ubuntu 8.04 partition. If U find solution please e-mail me, I will
try to work on it later.
Good luck
Tom

Which Intel chip? lspci should tell you.
Is there a particular application that triggers this behaviour? Do you
have a screenshot or photo of the kind of corruption you see?
