I want to use the Gaussian does not work .. why? hi

Get a decent mid-range card (~ €100) with a GPU from nvidia or ATI. If you're stuck with the i945, because it's soldered into your laptop, you're out of luck. IGPs really test your patience in terms of responsiveness when working with a 3D app like blender. @ Dread Knight: If you want to seriously use blender, you should not even bother with an i945.

I have Intel GMA 945 on my tablet PC ... and was looking forward to OpenGL 2.0 support if I could use Blender's GLSL feature, which require OpenGL 2.0 compatible video card :\ Argh… I have Intel GMA 945 on my tablet PC … and was looking forward to OpenGL 2.0 support if I could use Blender’s GLSL feature, which require OpenGL 2.0 compatible video card :\

I wanted to have a good blur effect not eating all my cpu. If there are people outside that think having a good desktop with good visuals, this kind of this makes the people see with other eyes on the linux desktop (plus the pleasure to enjoy it while you work with it). I really really look forward to use it on karmic very soon ;-) Awesome! Thanks for the heads up. I wanted to have a good blur effect not eating all my cpu.

That could be the main issue. As far as I remember, intel only pours resources into developing and maintaining the driver for i965 and greater. I no longer have access to an i945-based system, so I can't test it myself here. BTW, I don't see this bug - demonstrated in the screencast attached to the bug-report - on my i965-based laptop here. @ Taiebot: You’re on an i945. That could be the main issue.

There's only one (unit 0) available. Thus you're currently not able to replicate the "masking out" using just clutter, or its lower level foundation cogl. @ mrmcq2u: So far clutter 1.0 does not expose access to the texture-units offered by OpenGL.

With regards to the ati issue, I was trying to fix it with a helpful guy on #radeon all day. It seems that the xserver is mis-communicating with libdrm-radeon1 on boot. It says its compatible but something gets lost in translation. Apparently the bug is fixed upstream and I tried out xorg edgers ppa and now its working perfect :D The ati stuff currently in karmic is pretty broken, I think that they should pull in the latest release from xorg edgers and use that instead. Maybe try enabling dri2 by default after and see if the issues where there before crop up again then disable it for stable release. I think that dri2 should be on by default though, I was beginning to ponder switching to fedora just to make things easier by having working dri2 when I was loosing hope. Its not just people with osd that get annoyed with needing to disable compiz to have things render correctly :( @ macslow does clutter offer any similar way of masking out the edge?

I am from the cairo-dock project Have you seen the cairo-dock project they have got transformed your initial work on cairo on now a full opengl dock unforunately only intel drivers doesn't display opengl correctly. They have set up a weekly ppa https://launchpad.net/cairo-dock for testing with weekly updates. I would be happy if someone who nows opengl and intel drivers could have a deep look and tell us if that could be fix before karmic. https://bugs.launchpad.net/cairo-dock-core/+bug/428900 Thank you so much for your work for improving the state of free software.
