xf86-video-intel 2.10.0 Brings Pineview Support

Posted by Michael Larabel on January 05, 2010

Intel has just put out its quarterly update to their X.Org DDX driver. This new driver is xf86-video-intel 2.10.0 and it delivers on dropping all support for user-space mode-setting (using kernel mode-setting is now a must), KMS video overlay support (when using the Linux 2.6.32 kernel or later), new debugging options, many bug-fixes, and support for the new Intel Pineview chips.

The xf86-video-intel 2.10.0 announcement can be found on xorg-announce.
