Hi,

I'm using Ubuntu Jaunty on my Thinkpad R51. Everything worked out of
the box, but the 2D graphics performance seems to be really slow.
Resizing, scrolling and other graphics operations are really slow.
Does anyone have the same problem? The originally installed Windows XP
seemed much faster in this respect, so I guess it is a driver problem.
I'm attaching my lsmod output so you can see what drivers are used on
my system. To me it looks like all necessary drivers are loaded.

Would be great if anyone could help me, or at least tell me that this
is a common problem, then I will have to switch back to Windows XP
because it is really hard to work like that.
