Bad 2D performance with intel driver on Mobile GM965/GL960

[David Markey]

That didnt seem to make any notable difference. I tried compiling
2.3.2 against 7.4 and got this:

In file included from i810_driver.c:88:
i830.h:73:20: error: xf86mm.h: No such file or directory


Where can i go from here?

Any other suggestions?
