I'll see what I can do :) @Martin: Awesome! Thanks for testing. The sooner we get the bug reports the bigger the chances are of getting them fixed before 2.26.0 @Mega John:

Still I believe the print options has room for improvement. Do you have any plans to work on this before 2.26? Would be great! kthxbai I love the games!

The only problem is that video playback is not tear-free when compositing is activated in metacity. But I think this problem also exists with the nvidia driver. So I'll keep Nouveau :).

I notice this with GNOME Do, but apparently KDE4 also stresses those codepaths. There is no (supported) 3d component to the nouveau driver - it's sitting in the gallium-0.2 branch of mesa's git repository. There's an even less supported version, the -ng branches, which do DRI2 and compiz and stuff. That set is highly experimental.
