The best Linux video drivers for Intel graphics chipsets are included with Fedora: you already have them. If performance is not adequate, perhaps there is a problem with your setup? Please post:
> output of command: glxinfo|grep render
> contents of file: /etc/X11/xorg.conf (if exists)
> upload to pastebin.com and post link here, file: /var/log/Xorg.0.log

direct rendering: Yes
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) 965GM GEM 20080716 x86/MMX/SSE2

/etc/X11/xorg.conf don't exists

So, what's the problem you're having exactly?

so my problem is. i install World of Warcraft, and everything is great, i have sound, i also can see the movie ( you know the beginning of Wow) so when it comes to choose the realms the black screen it blocked, it don't display any error. i think it's problem with openGL. i don't know really what's what to do.

thank you.

Hi,

can you enter the following in a terminal (command line):
$glxinfo | grep rendering
should return
direct rendering: Yes
If it does not return the above the graphics driver is not installed correctly.

You have the same graphics that I do on my Sony VAIO (Intel 965GM) and I have the same problem. You will most likely not solve your problem. I do, however, run WoW on my desktop computer under Fedora 10 and Wine, and it runs flawlessly (here's my screen shot). Some things just were not meant to be, and the limited graphics abilities of most laptops makes running extremely graphic-intensive programs with emulation (I know Wine is not an emulator, blah blah blah) a near impossibility. After looking at your desktop PC specs, I know that you can do what you want with it. I dual-boot my laptop both F10 and Vista Premium for the single reason of playing WoW.
