Which Linux distribution and version? Intel graphics are b0rked in Ubuntu 9.04. This is fixed in 9.10 betas although 9.10 is not released yet. If you run command glxgears -info what GL_RENDERER, GL_VERSION, GL_VENDOR does it say and how many frames/5 sec do you get? You can also enable EXA instead of UXA in xorg.conf. This should give a speed improvement (sometimes of 100%), and should be stable on Ubuntu 9.10.

I also have an Intel (GMA X3100), EXA enabled, latest Ubuntu 9.10/x86-64 beta, Compiz enabled. Works great. So I don't see why on a lower resolution as 800x480 it should lag. In my case the Maemo 5 applications work well, and there is no lag or tearing in the UI. I also followed this guide to get rid of occasional tearing.
