I use the latest wmii version (wmii-hg2429) freshly compiled in ubuntu interpid.

Resizing or moving columns are really slow. The same is true with wmii
3.6 version. I never noticed that in ubuntu hardy.

Does someone, using ubuntu inteprid, meet this similar behavior.

I'm guessing this is actually what you are seeing.  Read the *whole*
page and don't just lump with setting your 'AccelMethod' to XAA; if
this is actually your issue.

This bug is documented *everywhere*.

That's true !

Here my new xorg.conf part for the intel card :

Section "Device"
    Identifier    "CarteIntel"
    Driver        "intel"
    Option      "DRI"                       "true"
    Option         "FramebufferCompression"    "on"
    Option      "UseFBDev"                  "true"
    Option      "RenderAccel"               "true"
#   For enabling the old acceleration 3d (stable)   
    Option      "AccelMethod"               "XAA"
    Option      "XAANoOffscreenPixmaps"     "true"
#   For enabling the new acceleration 3d (not stable)
#    Option         "AccelMethod"               "EXA"
    Option         "Tiling"                    "on"
    Option         "MigrationHeuristic"        "greedy"
    Option      "ExaNoComposite"            "false"
EndSection

With the OLD acceleration methode : XAA wmi-hg works great (no troubles on resizing or moving client).

Thank you for the help!
