Now see the performance of the Official VIA Drivers for Linux running on Gutsy, on the same hardware:

How uncool is that eh? VIA does not allows me to be a Linux user. Nothing is supported and the performance is 4x worse than on XP.
VIA: I honestly did not know you would not support other OSs than XP when I bought this Laptop. Seriously, how could I?
The Laptop vendor says it's not their fault but yours: They also are waiting for some move from you in terms of drivers. If you are not gonna support your own video chipset on Linux, can you refund me so I can get a Laptop with a chipset that actually works on Linux??

Hm ive got same problem like you I try to play ET but it dont works.
Under Windows it works good, but it lags sometimes.
Also other 3D applications work nice without problems but I want to use Linux
Big Problem with Unichrome Pro IGP on kubuntu playing on Wolfesntein ET
Also glxinfo gives some strange shit:
