Bug#523953: Got some clarifications

[Apelete Seketeli <apelete@seketeli.org>]

I have made some research on the state of the 2.7.0 Intel driver.
>From what I've read, the problems I have come from my using of
Metacity's compositing manager. The new intel driver currently has
some tearing and framerate (among others) problems while watching
videos in a composited environment. The good news is that upstream
seems to be fully aware of the problem, and the bad is there's no way
to know (AFAIK) how much time (and effort) it will take before the
driver improves.
Disabling compositing helps with the video (not with the general
redraw speed on the desktop though), for those seeking for a
workaround.

Thanks for the hard work,
Keep it up.
