Intel X 2.2.1 Driver Release Imminent

Written by Michael Larabel in Intel on 22 January 2008 at 11:04 AM EST. 6 Comments

We've known since last month that Intel's X.Org display driver would be having a v2.2.1 release soon, and it now looks like it will be released this week. No new features will be introduced until the Intel 2.3.0 driver, but the 2.2.1 release will address a variety of outstanding bugs. Jin Gordon is calling for those in Intel's new driver testing program to test out the latest code in the xf86-video-intel-2.2-branch while using the latest DRM, Mesa, and Xserver components. Presently there are three bugs attached to the Intel 2.2.1 blocker bug.
