New "intel" xorg-server USE flag

10-26-2008, 04:04 PM

I see there is a new intel USE flag for xorg-server. I also see
(-i810%*) which may be due to my hardened profile? Should I change
VIDEO_CARDS="i810" to intel? I have this in the laptop's lspci:
"Intel Corporation 82801H".

Yes.

Intel have developed an all-in-one driver called ?intel" that supercedes and
replaces the old drivers. The USE flag change reflects this.

which will be driven nicely by the new driver
