Intel Graphics On Linux Still Behind Windows

Do you want speed? Does your AMD cpu run over 4 ghz (sometimes 5) if you want it? That's more likely with Intel...

kindergarten? the X6 1090T runs on 4ghz there is no problem about that.

its very easy to tun an X6 at 4ghz.

I wrote OVER 4 ghz!

OMG! A "who has the bigger dick?" contest in Phoronix!

I can't wait till bulldozer is released because it goes to 11

I won't be buying any CPU's soon though, gonna stick with what I got until 2nd gen bulldozers are released with graphics

learn how to read/write the article talks about 4.1ghz this is OVER 4ghz.

but ok you can't read and also can't write.

why someone buy intel for linux graphiks?

just because opensource? why not buy an amd card and enjoy an real good opensource driver?

I've been waiting for SB b/c of Anand's tests that showed the 12EU version beating the low end discrete chips in almost all instances and being competitive with a few of the next level up cards. In my experience (with Nvidia and Intel), Intel has been the only one to provide a tear-free desktop (though not with regards to video on my 945m) without resorting to OGL. I'm going to buy an SB chip (specifically a socket 1156 xeon when it is released) b/c the graphics have been good and I don't have this ridiculous instability that is partly caused by, IMHO, Nvidia's driver. I will buy AMD cards and look forward to Bulldozer and Fusion in general, but I want the gallium drivers to be in better shape and the state trackers be available for off-loading some of the video playback (cpu is simply not fast enough on high bitrate even with threading).

How about Intel releasing a Proprietary driver like they do for Windows.

Here is an Idea! One version of a Linux distribution supported for 10 years.
Then that one driver works for 10 years. It's unbelievable!

You'd have programs lining up to use those I/O towers.
Drivers from hardware vendors would all become available over night.

It's called RHEL, 7-10 yrs of support and stable ABI.

Not sure why everyone doesn't use it :-)

i prefer debian based stuff... maybe other people think in the same way.

but hey long life to redhat and RHEL (but i don't use it)

You musta missed the smiley, I wasn't actually being serious, though I do wonder what Debian distro gives 7-10 year lifetime with stable ABIs.
