Hi guys, I appreciate the sentiment of discussing about benchmarking
and performances, but I really would like to have a working video card
before discussing performances. Actually, not only it performs very
badly, but it is unusable.

I'm wondering how can I identify the problem or give some help to the
devs to spot a new bug. This is a X3100, not a G33 (which is X3000
AFAIK) nor a G35 (X3500).

I cannot see any problem from the various log files nor I receive any
error. When I launch a 3D app, most of the time it freezes the system,
or in the case of glxgears if I try to move the containing window I
get a freeze again.

Just installed Mesa 7.0.2 and recompiled the intel drivers against the
new version, now glxinfo displays 7.0.2 but I'm still having the same
issues. I cannot compile xf86-video-intel from git because of some
missing macro errors during the make.

Is there a way I can do more debugging? I'd appreciate if some of you
could point me in the direction of spotting a possible bug, to be sure
that the problem is not in my side (I would be more than glad to
receive *errors* but I just get lockups).

This is the output of glxinfo (further question: why does it say
"OpenGL 1.4" when the X3100 is supposed to support 1.5?):
