      What about Ivy Bridge?
      Anyone has tried modesetting? Is it even available?

        Your distribution has to package and ship it. ON Debian, for example, it is bundled in the xserver-xorg-core package.

        To verify, your Xorg log should look like:

        Code:
        [    45.641] (==) Matched intel as autoconfigured driver 0
        [    45.641] (==) Matched intel as autoconfigured driver 1

        [    45.641] (==) Matched vesa as autoconfigured driver 4

        [    45.641] (==) modeset(0): Depth 24, (==) framebuffer bpp 32

        IIRC, the biggest benefit with modesetting driver is the following:

        Code:
        rrs@learner:~$ ps aux | grep Xorg
        rrs       3165  0.3  1.4 420616 117212 tty2    S+   Jun17  14:56 /usr/lib/xorg/Xorg vt2 -displayfd 3 -auth /run/user/1000/gdm/Xauthority -background none -noreset -keeptty -verbose 3
