Summary: Intel video driver for the Xorg X server
intel is an Xorg driver for Intel integrated video cards.

The driver supports depths 8, 15, 16 and 24. All visual types are
supported in depth 8. For the i810/i815 other depths support the
TrueColor and DirectColor visuals. For the i830M and later, only the
TrueColor visual is supported for depths greater than 8. The driver
supports hardware accelerated 3D via the Direct Rendering Infrastructure
(DRI), but only in depth 16 for the i810/i815 and depths 16 and 24 for
the 830M and later.

  - Update to intermediate version 2.99.917:
    The highlight of bugs fixed here are a couple of workarounds
    required for Broadwell and making sure that the rasterisation
    code is symmetric under inversions. However, as a couple of
    crashers slipped through into 2.99.916 (though not actual
    regressions in 2.99.916 per se) and 3 months have passed, we
    should make one more snapshot before an imminent release.
    + Beware of recomputing the clear hint in the middle of MI recursion
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77074
    + Fix crash from rendering an empty Glyph string under PRIME as the
      secondary driver
    + Restore application of default monitor options to the first output,
      a regression in 2.99.915 and the MST support
      https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=522500
    + Finally fix ZaphodHeads blocking on waiting for flip completion
      events. Before kernel 3.19, O_NONBLOCK support is broken and so we
      must avoid reading if we are not expecting an event.
    + Backwards compatibilty fix for fake triple buffering with PRIME and
      Xorg-1.15
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85144#c12
    + Fix a rendering issue with output rotation and software fallbacks.

  - U_sna-Validate-framebuffer-tiling-before-creation.patch
    Fix regression causing tiling settings not being validated
    which subsequently lead to failed surface allocations (bnc#898169).
* Tue Sep 09 2014 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to 3.0 prerelease 2.99.916:
    A Quick update for MST in UXA - we need to hook up the RandR outputs
    for dynamicaly added connectors.
* Tue Sep 09 2014 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to 3.0 prerelease 2.99.915:
    A significant change to UXA to enable MST and to keep it working on
    recent kernels needs some soaking before a major release, and the
    usual plethora of bugfixes. One other feature is the support for
    hardware rotations on very recent kernels.
    + Handle rotated scanouts that are all clear correctly. The region to
      update was not being computed correctly, overdrawing the wrong CRTC.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81820
    +  Reset cursor images after rotation and size changes
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81886
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=82273
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=82337
    + Handle stale DRI2 buffers and Client errors more gracefully
    + Fallback if we fail to render a glyph onto a too-large surface, e.g.
      direct rendering of glyphs onto extended desktops with gen2/gen3.
      https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/40949
    + Further work to enable tiled rendering onto large surfaces in
      severely aperture and memory constrained devices (e.g. gen2/gen3)
    + Honour the Primary option from xorg.conf and mark that as the RandR
      primary.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=82193
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=82205
    + Fix another Client-Window DRI2 close race
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=82979
    + Fix incorrect discarding of GPU damage when copying over the TearFree
      scanout - which caused a flicker in rapidly updated elements (like
      simple video panes).
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81973
  - Remove upstreamed patch:
    Patch1: U_Erase-cursor-image-when-changing-rotation.patch
* Fri Aug 29 2014 eich@suse.com
  - u_Erase-cursor-image-when-changing-rotation.patch
    - > U_Erase-cursor-image-when-changing-rotation.patch
* Fri Aug 29 2014 eich@suse.com
  - u_Erase-cursor-image-when-changing-rotation.patch
    Erase cursor image when changing rotation:
    The rotated cursor image will be at a different location
    in the 64x64 bit block and won't overlap with the unrotated
    image. Therefore it will not be overwritten if the real image
    is smaller (bnc#893752).
* Fri Aug 29 2014 eich@suse.com
  - u_sna_dri3_mesa_relies_upon_implicit_fences.patch

* Wed Jul 23 2014 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to version 2.99.914:
    A brown paper bag to hide the rebuilding from the tarball with
    'autoreconf -fi' error that arose from not distributing the libobj/
    directory.
* Wed Jul 23 2014 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to 3.0 prerelease 2.99.913: (Tarball from Git, Release Tarball is broken)
    Officially recognise HD Graphics 5300/5500/5600, Iris Graphics 6100 and
    Iris Pro Graphics 6200/P6300 (formerly known as Broadwell).
    + Check the window actually covers the CRTC before doing a single CRTC flip,
      and then restore the right framebuffer after completing CRTC flips.
      Otherwise we would detect an error and disable an output under TearFree
      Regression in 2.99.912
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80191
    + Fix framebuffer creation on kernels older than 3.11

      caused scrolling corruption in a few configurations
      Regression from 2.20.0
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79843
    + Do not throw away damage if there is no redundant copy
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79992
    + Check clipping on PolyRect before discarding the clipped damage
      Regression from 2.99.903
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79992
    + Fix hints for GLXPixmapa, as these are never swapped and so
      miss invalidating the hints on SwapBuffers with the result
      that they are often presumed blank
      Regression in 2.99.912
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79999
    + Fix incoherent choice of source bo when constructing 8x8 tiles,
      incorrect pattern origin when extracting, and then fix the
      alignment of colour patterns for BLT operations
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80033
    + Disable blending with the render engine on snoopable buffers
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80253
    + Restore throttling to prevent client lag under heavy GPU load
      Regression from 2.21.10
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77436
    + Use ClientGone for notifications on shared DRI2 windows to prevent
      rare crashes due to use-after-free of the swap requests
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80157
    + Ensure the mmaped CPU bo is idle before migrating damage
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80560
    + Fix incorrect clipping by the render engine for large DRI2 windows
    + Ensure that the aperture tiling fallbacks are bounded
    + Validate parameter to xf86-video-intel-backlight-helper more carefully
      (CVE-2014-4910)
    + Fix slaved scanouts for reverse optimus, though rotated slaves will
      require further patches to Xorg.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81383
    + Fix build without Composite extension.
    + Fix build without gettline().
    + UXA: Allocate and resize frontbuffer consistently to pass sanity checks
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80088
    + UXA: Report cached backlight value when the output is off (like sna)
      https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1032978
    + UXA: Mark outputs as off before the kernel does (like sna)
      This will prevent the internal panel from starting up blank in some
      multi-monitor configurations
      https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1103806
  - Note that the DRI2 exchange mechanism introduced in 2.99.912 exposes bugs
    in some compositors, at least kwin and comptom, which discard DRI2 buffer
    invalidates rather than resourcing their texture. For example,
    https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=336589
  - Note that the improved triple buffering introduced in DRI2 requires a patch
    to Xorg (now released upstream) to prevent crashes with DRI_PRIME.
    https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80001
  - Note that DRI3/Present require tracking the relevant development trees for
    mesa and the xserver as they are very much still under early testing. Also
    be aware that Mesa provides no support for explicit fencing so Damage
    tracking between compositors and clients is unserialised.
  - Remove upstream patches:
    + Patch1: U_sna_fix_scanout_creation_routine_for_old_kernels_3_11.patch

    * sna: Clear our private hints about front rendering exported bo
    (fdo#79999)
* Wed Jun 11 2014 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Add patch U_sna_fix_scanout_creation_routine_for_old_kernels_3_11.patch
    Make this driver-version usable with kernel <= 3.11
* Tue Jun 10 2014 sndirsch@suse.com
  - Update to 3.0 prerelease 2.99.912:
    A final round of features. We have everything from support for variable
    cursor sizes, support for the DRI3 and Present extensions, improved DRI2
    support, support for Xserver 1.16, userptr from kernel 3.16, and
    precursory support for DP multistream transport,
    * Avoid discarding dirty pixels when promoting a migration to cover the
    whole pixmap.
    Regression in 2.99.911
    https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77063
    https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77178
    * Avoid overextending degenerate lines (and consequentially accessing
    pixels outside of our damaged area).
    https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77074
    * Fix subpixel glyph rendering on gen2 devices (830-865 chipsets)
    Regression in 2.99.911
    https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77201
    * Share the global pixman glyph cache between ZaphodHeads
    https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54707
    * Light up all connected outputs, even if their status is unknown, on
    takeover from fbcon. This prevents loss of display after a resume
    on recent kernels, for example.
    https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77768
    * Show the video overlay (when supported by the hardware) across all
    outputs.
    https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77802
    * Do not discard damage when performing "BLT" spans inplace with the CPU.
    Regression from 2.20.10
    * Avoid discarding IO buffers too early during their preparation for a
    new batch
    https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79238
    * Fix fallback handling for displaying large scaled framebuffers (that
    are too large to be scaled by the GPU in a single pass)
    https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79320
    * Listen to external modifications of backlight value and propagate
    the notifications to RandR clients. This should make the GUI report
    ACPI keypresses to change the backlight correctly.
    https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79699
    * UXA: fix pageflips with 3 heads.
    * UXA: do not report a BadMatch error for DRI2GetMsc - as clients are
    often unprepared and die when they get the unexpected error.
* Wed Apr 02 2014 sndirsch@suse.com
  - disable build of backlight-helper for now; just too much trouble
    with policykit; and as long as there are GPUs considered supported
    on our distribution without a proper KMS driver it's useless having
    this anyway ...

  - Update to 3.0 prerelease 2.99.911:
    Hans de Geode has been working on making the Xserver work without
    privileges under the supervision of systemd/logind. This necessitated a
    few new features for us: server fds (where we are passed which fd to use
    to talk to our device by the Xserver who may in turn receive it from
    logind or other host) and a small backlight helper so that we can continue
    to provide a RandR backlight property when running without root privileges.
    + Flush when changing blend modes on Ironlake, or else single glyphs
      are sometimes rendered incorrectly
      Regression from 2.20.15
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=74882
    + Fix pixmap offsets for pixman fallbacks onto Composite redirected
      windows
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73811
    + Fix blending onto 8-bit destinations, typically used for generating
      masks in complex Render operations, on gen2
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75818
    + Handle failure to create DRI bo more carefully. For example on gen3,
      the DDX supports pixmaps that are much, much larger than OpenGL can
      use and do not support the tiling modes that we request for OpenGL.
      https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1289049
    + Fix a bookkeeping bug with proxy buffers that are marked active but
      not actually inserted into a request (so they end up permanently
      active and confuse everybody).
      https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1289923
    + Actually turn off displays with DPMS off for UXA.

      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=74550
    * Do not expose the TexturedVideo adaptor in UXA when it is disabled
      either due to a hung GPU or explicitly disabled by the user.
    * Restore the pipe stall when changing CC state on gen6, otherwise
      the GPU may not flush intermediate results from all EU resulting
      in render corruption (usually the occasional black box).

  - Update to 3.0 prerelease 2.99.908:
    A couple of regressions dashed the hopes that .907 was to be the final
    release candidate, so time to start the cycle again after applying a few
    more bugfixes.
    + Fix invalid pageflipping of GLXPixmaps by UXA.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73282
    + Consistently treat DPMS Suspend/Standy as Off, otherwise we may
      incorrectly restore the backlight in UXA.
    + Fix disabling the backlight in UXA when querying the value whilst off
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73181.
    + Invalidate between every operation if rendering into the source or mask.
      Fixes regression in 2.99.907 on Ivybridge (seen in KDE)
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73208
    + Check for available batch buffer state before restoring state on gen4,
      otherwise we overwrite surface state with commands and cause a GPU hang.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73348
    + Prevent an invalid free by TearFree
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73469
    + Fix confusion in TearFree when it tried to pageflip to a stale bo
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70905
    + Initialise TearFree contents with the current frontbuffer upon creation,
      otherwise old content may be visible for significant fractions of a
      second after resume or DPMS on
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73842
    + Nullify the old pointer into a CPU mmapping of the bo when promoting it
      on the GPU. Eventually that old pointer becomes invalid and will cause
      the Xserver to crash.
      Fixes regression in 2.99.906
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73351
    + Restore the serialNumber on the GC correctly after falling back to
      software. This was seen to cause corruption with Wine.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73856
    + Do not ignore CPU damage on a pixmap unless the Composite operation
      will completely overwrite it. This was observed in xfce4.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69528
    + Skip fake outputs during initial probe as they can cause a NULL pointer
      dereference.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73981
    + Fix rendering of dashed zero-width lines onto 24bit buffers
      https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1059152
    + Cap the freed Pixmap cache and reuse it more often
      Fixes a regression in 2.99.907 that caused the memory used by X to
      grow until it was cleaned up during server regreneration
      https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1272338
* Tue Dec 31 2013 crrodriguez@opensuse.org
  - disable support for legacy User Mode Setting (for i810) on
    !%ix86 systems, while other distros currently disable this feature
    unconditionally, I am only suggesting this change for architectures
    that do not or cannot have this hardware.
* Mon Dec 30 2013 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to 3.0 prerelease 2.99.907:
    The highlight here is that things seem to be quietening down on the
    bug reporting front. All is not quiet as you will see below, and
    maybe it is just the holiday season that is approaching*, but there
    has been a remarkable falloff in bug reports. Lets hope this trend
    holds and we can make a stable release shortly!

      both broke rendering with small 8x8 patterns in some circumstances
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=71260
    + Fix reads from a cropped video image using a packed pixel format.
    + Another clear the clear hint after DRI2 SwapBuffers, like the bug fixed
      in 2.99.903. Failure to clear the hint would cause read backs of the
      frontbuffer (Xvnc) to be blank.

    + Disable Y-tiling on gen4 - (lp#1222203)
    + Disable same EDID detection based on property id - the kernel

      system is hard against the memory wall, then the kernel will
      start issuing SIGBUS even for CPU mmaps. Untrapped these
      will cause X to die. (fdo#67889)

    + Don't fail to configure if DRI1 is not available and the user asks
      for both DRI and KMS-only [Regression from 2.21.14]
    + Lots of miscellaneous fixes for older gcc, other compilers and BSD.
    + Initial framework support for hosted X.
    + Improve transition from fbcon to X with multiple outputs and extended
      desktops.
    + Ensure the framebuffer exists before checking it against the CRTC
      constraints.
      https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/121234
      [Regression from 2.21.10]
    + Add RGB overlay support for Ironlake and later.
    + Don't release the overlay buffer too early, i.e. before the client
      disables the Xv image.
    + Tweak the ring switching logic to reduce use of semaphores on
      Sandybridge and later - a delicate balancing act between trying to
      use the faster engine for the task and preventing concurrent use of
      multiple rings.
  - Packaging changes:

  - Update to version 2.21.14:
    A few updates for the top-end Haswell systems (notably GT3 and GT3e
    systems), in particular, setting the appropriate thread counts for the
    larger GPU and handling a few scaling issues with the emedded DRAM. More
    important than the performance tuning though is a fix for a critical
    issue encountered by a few people on gen4/gen5 systems.
    + Initial performance tuning for HSW:GT3e
    + Fix a crash with Planetary Annihilation
    + Disable triple buffering for compositors
    + Reserve space in the exec buffer array for deferred VBOs.

  - Update to version 2.21.13:
    A minor release to repair the build for non-Linux systems, and to undo a
    few more regressions.
    + Avoid potential memory corruption with allocations of very small
      depth 1 bitmaps.
    + Fix source clipping whilst computing copy extents and exposures.
      [Regression from 2.21.12]
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=66970
    + Use /proc/cpuinfo if cpuid4 is not available (old hardware or old
      gcc), and repair the build on systems without cpuid.
      [Regression from 2.21.12]
    + Fix performance regression on Ironlake from inadvertently flushing
      after every operation.
      [Regression from 2.21.11]
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67157

      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67176
    + Stop being overly restrictive and rejecting stale DRI2 buffers.
      (DRI2 is inherently racy in that the client may have completed and
      submitted rendering to buffers that are now invalid on the server.
      This race is magnified by bugs within the Xserver where it forgets
      to notify the DRI2 clients of certain invalidation events.)
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67210
    + Handle a failure to use a GTT mmap for a pixmap upload and try
      an alternative method before giving up.
* Sun Jul 14 2013 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to version 2.21.12:
    In this release, we clear up the teething troubles from preserving the KMS
    configuration, notably external connections on Haswell and plugging in new
    outputs after startup were broken. Besides these regression fixes, there
    are a couple of fixes for some long standing issues, such as incorrect
    rendering on gen2, an infinite loop with very, very large pixmaps and a
    slight improvement to the tempermental gen4.
    + Allow untiled scanouts again (required for large extended desktops on
      gen2 and gen3).
      [Regression from 2.21.11]
    + Use the correct count of the number of dirty damage boxes for the quick
      check on whether the existing damage contains the requested area.
      The danger is that we may get a false result and skip migration and so
      cause pixmap corruption (in the unlikely event that the application
      frequently causes fallbacks).
      [Regression from 2.21.11]
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=66430

    + Fix gen2 rendercopy into a8 surfaces, for example, glyph uploads into
      the glyph cache.
    + Fix detection of user overrides for initial connection configuration.

    + Some more tuning of the gen4 vertex corruption workaround. The root
      cause behind the GPU using incorrect texture coordinates is still
      not solved, but by reducing the maximum number or rectangles in
      flight through the GPU we reduce the likelihood of corruption.
    + Fix compilation with gcc-4.5

  - Update to version 2.21.11:
    An eventful week. What started with a regression with some builds of
    firefox on some machines lead ultimately to the discovery of an older
    kernel bug. Aside from the work to fix the image bug and a few other
    older bugs that were reported and resolved this week, there is also a
    (hopefully) subtle change to the initial configuration of displays. In
    the absence of user overrides in xorg.conf, the DDX will try to preserve
    the same display configuration as used by the kernel, which hopefully
    will be the same configuration as setup by the BIOS. The result should
    be a boot sequence that does not resize at all (aka fastboot) - until
    the display manager takes over and loads a completely different
    configuration!

  - Update to version 2.21.10:
    Fixes missing support for Xv (with the textured video adaptor) on
    Haswell, and an old bug with wide monitors on various generation. Along
    with a few other regression fixes and performance tweaks for various
    corner cases.

  - Update to version 2.21.8:
    A quick release to cleanup a few regressions from the introduction of
    copy-on-write support, notably hitting wine applications and a memory
    leak for firefox.
    + Only mark a PolyFillRect operation as replacing if it is unclipped

* Tue May 21 2013 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to version 2.21.7:
    A couple of weeks turned into a month and a couple of weeks... Amidst
    the usual bug fixes, we have added the complete set of Haswell PCI IDs -
    hopefully future proofing ourselves against being surprised by new
    products. We can also now use the correct term for the top of the range
    Haswell variants, GT3.
    + Fix several assertion failures hit by Jiri Slaby.
    + Allow XvMC to also target overlay/sprite planes.
    + Throw in a paranoid MI_FLUSH between BLT and RENDER operations on
      Ironlake.

    + Fix origin of trapezoids.
      https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1178020
    + Introduce copy-on-write support for cloning pixmaps. The ultimate
      goal here is to efficiently support the TearFree mode of operation,
      but this provides immediate benefits with firefox - most importantly
      because of the inefficient way it now implements scrolling.
* Mon Apr 08 2013 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to version 2.21.6:
    A surprising highlight of this release is a little refresh to the KMS
    support for OpenBSD. OpenBSD now has its own KMS implementation which is
    mostly compatible with the interface in Linux, with one or two tweaks
    supplied by Mark Kettenis. This release continues to cleanup behaviour
    for Haswell.
    + Workaround a failure by the xserver to invalidate DRI buffers
      following a pixmap change for XComposite redirection.

      for muxed setups).
    + Fix the tests for AVX/AVX2 support in CPUID and remember to check for
      OS support as well.
    + Report a monotonic UST value for undisplayed drawables rather than 0
      by Daniel Kurtz
    + Fix video playback on gen4 through a complex clip (more gen4 GPU woes)

* Sat Mar 23 2013 zaitor@opensuse.org
  - Update to version 2.21.5:
    + Haswell reintroduces a command to load the scanline window from
      the command stream and so requires its own specialised
      wait-for-vsync routine. Failure to do so was then causing hangs
      when trying to do tearfree video or use a compositor.
    + Prevent buffer leak if a non-fullscreen Window is closed with
      multiple pending swap events.
    + Fix offset transformation for fallback gradient paths
      (fdo#62198).
    + Prevent Glamor from crashing if misconfigured.
    + Prevent UXA from crashing if torn down during PreInit.
    + Prevent miscompilation with different functional units having
      different compiler flags. (fdo#62198)
    + Fix rendering of CompositeTriFan with recent Xorg.
    + Apply the video src-offset fix highlighted in the last release
      (fdo#62343).
    + Fix rendering of multiple glyphs to very large destination
      surfaces (lp#1156387).
    + Fix scanline waits for Haswell (lp#1156679).
* Wed Mar 20 2013 sndirsch@suse.com

    meta package to this package
* Tue Mar 12 2013 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to version 2.21.4:
    More bugs, more fixes, more releases. A minor new feature being introduced
    is the runtime detection of CPU instructions sets along with specialised
    paths to take advantage of the available CPU.
    + Honour LinearFramebuffer for clumsy PowerXpress integration
    + Disable read-read optimisations of mappings whilst the root
      cause of a corruption issue remains elusive.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=61628
    + Disable 8-bpp framebuffers in UXA as the regressions therein

    + Restart vertex checks after lock contention
      https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1124576

      https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1135403
    + Correct GPU limits for early gen2 and gen3 architectures and prevent
      an infinite recursion for particular image sizes.
* Thu Feb 21 2013 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to version 2.21.3:
    A few minor bugfixes, another point release.
    + Fix tracking of DRI pixmaps and their backing bo across reparenting. If
      we tried to execute a SwapBuffers after a Window was reparented, but
      before the DRI client has updated its references, then we would end up
      manipulating an exported pixmap without a flush flag set. In the worst
      case, this would culminate in a segfault in the driver.
      https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1127497
    + Restore the gen4 workarounds for flickering rendering - a few cases still
      remain, as the root cause persists.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60402
    + Double check that the device has KMS enabled before claiming. This allows
      X to gracefully fallback to VESA/fbdev rather than bailing out.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60987
    + Fix the UXA render programs for projective transforms on Ivybridge.
* Sun Feb 10 2013 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to version 2.21.2:
    Pass the brown paper bags, I need half a dozen or so. That seemingly
    innocuous build fix with xorg-1.13 happned to have the little side-effect
    of breaking glyph rendering with xorg-1.12 and older on 64-bit machines.
* Sun Feb 10 2013 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to version 2.21.1:
    A fix for a potential GPU hang on 945gm (GMA3100) and earlier chipsets,
    along with backporting SNA to the packages found in stable distributions
    like Debian 6.0 (Squeeze).
    + Cleanup compilation warnings from deblint, thanks to Paul Menzel
    + Minor build improvements by Damien Lespiau.
    + Disable generating span geometry for non-rectilinear spans on gen4
    in order to work around and prevent one class of render corruption.
    + Prevent cache thrashing and severe performance degradation on LLC
      machines for streaming texture updates. However, note the effect was
      only observed on just one particular laptop.
    + Fix alignment of subsurface proxies for old chipsets.

* Fri Feb 01 2013 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to version 2.21.0:
  - A few new features:
    + Enable render acceleration for Haswell GT1/GT2.
    + Enable multi-threaded rasterisation of trapezoids and fallback composition
    + Utilile a new kernel interface (v3.9) for processing relocations
  - Along with a few older features from the 2.20.x series:
    + PRIME support for hotplug GPUs and hybrid systems
    + Support for IvyBridge GT1 machines, aka HD2500 graphics.
    + Stable 830gm/845g support, at last!
  - As usual we have a large number of bug fixes since the last release:
    + Prevent a stray relocation being left after a buffer is removed from
      a batch, leading to GPU hangs.
    + Make the driver more robust against its own failures to submit batches
      by falling back to software rendering.
    + Fix emission of scanline waits for secondary pipes on gen6/7. Otherwise
      you may encounter GPU hangs in MI_WAIT_FOR_EVENT.
    + Fix a missing corner pixel when drawing rectangles with PolyLines
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55484

    + Correctly handle the composition of rotated displays too large for the
      3D pipeline
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60124
    + Fix the computation of the planar video frame size
      https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1104180
* Mon Jan 21 2013 sndirsch@suse.com
  - Update to version 2.20.19:
    A quick release as the last broke USB DisplayLink slave outputs
    badly. The performance of those displays was unusable due to a
    inadvertent change that caused us to flush the entire scanout
    over the USB for every drawing operation.
* Wed Jan 16 2013 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to version 2.20.18:
    A bunch of miscellaneous fixes for assertion failures and various
    performance regressions when mixing new methods for offloads, along with
    a couple of improvements for rendering with gen4.
  - Bugs fixed since 2.20.17:
    + Remove use of packed unnormalized texture coordinates on gen4/5 as
      these GPUs do not support unnormalized coordinates in the sampler.
    + Remove dependency upon x86 asm for cross-building to unsupported
      architectures.
      https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=448570
    + Apply damage around PRIME updates in the correct order.
    + Correctly read the initial backlight level for when the user
      overrides UXA's choice of backlight controller.
    + Throttle UXA and prevent it queuing work much faster than the GPU can
      complete it. This realised itself in impossible performance figures and
      the entire display freezing for several seconds whlist the GPU caught
      up. One side effect is that it also caused the DDX to consume more
      memory than was required as it could not recycle buffers quick
      enough, and in some cases this produces a marked improvement in
      performance. Also note on gen2/3 this requires a new libdrm [2.4.41]
      in order to prevent a bug causing the DDX to fallback to swrast.
* Wed Dec 26 2012 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to 2.20.17:
    A minor update to prepare for co-operating with the kernel over managing
    stability on 830gm/845g. On this pair of chipsets, the kernel will perform
    an extra copy of the batchbuffer into reserved memory, which prevents them
    from randomly dying. However, that extra copy does have a noticeable
    impact upon throughput, so we also have a mechanism for userspace to
    opt-out of the kernel workaround and take responsibility for ensuring its
    batches are coherent.
  - Bugs fixed since 2.20.16:
    + Build fixes against xorg-1.14
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58552
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58406

    + Fix potential corruption when using images larger than ~1GiB
* Sun Dec 16 2012 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to 2.20.16:
    Rejoice! We have found a trick to make 830gm/845g stable at long last.
    Ever since the switch to GEM and dynamic video memory, those early
    second generation chipsets have been plagued by instability. The lack of
    flushing cachelines from the CPU to GMCH was eventually solved by using
    an undocmented bit, but 830/845 were still hanging under memory pressure.
    These deaths were all due to garbage finding its way into the command
    streamer, and they go away if we take a leaf out of the original driver
    and never reuse those pages for anything else. So for the first time
    ever, I have been able to complete running the test suite on an 845g,
    even whilst thrashing the page and buffer caches!
  - Bugs fixed since 2.20.15:
    + Run the SF stage as single-threaded on gen4 to workaround a few issues
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=57410
    + Keep the scanout SURFACE_STATE separate to avoid overriding its
      memory access control on gen6/7 (i.e. writes to the scanout need to
      be kept out of the render cache)
    + Tune batch flushing after an operation to an exported surface under a
      compositor.
    + Make sure the source is on the CPU for inplace composition of trapezoids
      using the CPU
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56825
    + Immediately flush in the block hander after a split batch to reduce
      latency between the two halves of an operation.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51718
    + Install a fallback config if we fail to install the desired config
      at VT switch (i.e. booting, after resume with 3 incompatible pipes on
      Ivybridge)
    + Pin batches to avoid CS incoherence on 830/845
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26345
* Mon Dec 03 2012 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to version 2.20.15:
    And lo, enabling more of the common acceleration paths for gen4 revealed
    another lurking bug - something is wrong with how we prepare Y-tiling
    surfaces for rendering. For the time being, we can surreptiously disable
    them for gen4 and avoid hitting GPU hangs.
  - Bugs fixed since 2.20.14:
    + Avoid clobbering the render state after failing to convert the
      operation to use the blitter.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=57601

* Sat Oct 20 2012 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to 2.20.12:
    More bug reports, more bug fixes! Perhaps the headline feature is
    that with secure batches, coming to a 3.8 kernel near you, we may
    finally have the ability to perform updates to the scanout synchronized
    to the refresh rate on later SandyBridge and IvyBridge chipsets. It comes
    at quite a power cost as we need to keep the GPU out of its power saving
    modes, but it should allow legacy vsync to function at last. But this
    should allow us to address a longstanding issue with tearing on
    SandyBridge+.
  - Bugs fixed since 2.20.10:
    + Fix component-alpha rendering on IvyBridge, for example subpixel
      antialiased glyphs.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56037
    + Flush before some "pipelined" state changes on gen4. The evidence is
      that the same flushes as required on gen5+ are also required for gen4.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55627
    + Prevent a potential crash when forcing a stall on a busy CPU bo
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56180
  - [Release 2.20.11 contained a typo causing UXA to fail immediately.]
* Sun Oct 14 2012 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to version 2.20.10:
    The last couple of weeks have been fairly retrospective, a dive
    into prehistory tidying up the earlier generations which lay
    languishing as the core progressed and lead to a number of annoying
    core bugs being fixed.
  - Bugs fixed since 2.20.9:
    + Release DRM master earlier during shutdown so switching between
      multiple X servers works automatically.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55446
    + Suppress error propagation from DRI2GetMSC and behave as if the
      pipe was simply off to avoid unexpected errors in the clients
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55395
    + A few fixes to i8xx batch emission, ensuring that the GPU is
      always in a valid state.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55455
    + Prevent a use-after-free during UXA shutdown due to inspecting
      the glamor flags after the glamor interface had been freed.
    + Prevent a crash combining TearFree and rotations.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55527
    + Correct a missing damage upload along PutImage after using the CPU
      bo as a source for the GPU.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55508
    + Fix compilation for older glibc without O_CLOEXEC
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55577
    + Fix out-of-tree builds failing to recompile the gen4 assemblies
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55645
    + Fix non-standard build host configuration handling for intel-gen4asm
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55646
    + Fix a potential batch buffer overflow when replacing the last BLT
      fill operation with a copy
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55700
    + Flush the render pipeline more frequently on Ironlake as not all
      pipelined state changes are.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51422
    + Detect when we need to read the destination for the background raster
      op during fallbacks.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55810
    + Avoid a potential deference of an invalid CPU mmap after doing an
      inplace tiled upload.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55812
    + Prevent sign extension when packing the upload data for CopyPlane
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55823
    + Fix some render corruption with a UDL slave output and pageflipping
* Sat Sep 29 2012 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to version 2.20.9:
    And so it came to pass that a critical bug was uncovered in UXA. The
    kernel does not like to pageflip when the pipe is off, yet due to the
    delayed nature of a pageflip and the relaxed checking performed by UXA,
    we could request a pageflip after turning off the display (DPMS). The
    kernel rejected that pageflip and the error handling path failed to
    restore sanity, and when the screen came back it was stuck on the image
    seen before it went to sleep. (Note that there are also some related
    kernel bugs, but this update should prevent the most conspicious of the
    freezes.) Many thanks to Timo Aaltonen for his efforts in tracking down
    the issue.
  - In other news:
    + Prepare for xorg-1.4, the api is being tweaked again.
    + Handle early FreeScreen in UXA.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55346
    + Reenable XvMC support
    + Do not replace the GPU bo when uploading into the shadow/CPU copy
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54978
    + Fix use of an uninitialised GC when drawing glyphs to a depth=1 pixmap
* Sun Sep 16 2012 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to version 2.20.8:
    + Some bugs fixed, see below
    + Enabling ValleyView SDV
  - Bugs fixed since 2.20.7:
    + Add an extra layer of defence against trying to use a non-GEM device
      with UXA. This should already be taken care of with the new probe,
      but the extra sanity check already existed in the code but was doing
      nothing.
      https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/962892
    + Fix computation of valid CRTCs bitmask for ZaphodHead
      Some systems can only handle certain outputs on certain pipes
      (Screens), and this information was not being propagated through to X
      and randr correctly, breaking valid configurations and not detecting
      invalid configurations correctly.
    + Disable global glyph caching with ZaphodHeads.
      The glyph privates need to be Screen private, but at the moment are
      global leading to conflicts and invalid rendering with multiple heads.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54707
    + Prevent direct read back of unmappable buffers
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54808
    + Tile large uploads whilst replacing the alpha channel
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54808
    + Correct the source offset when converting a RENDER composite
      operation into a BLT composite operation.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54868
    + Correct a minor typo in flattening alphamaps which caused the
      replacement pixmap to often end up with a height of zero.
      https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=434860
    + Don't discard the CPU damage if only part is being replaced.
      This is most evident when combining software renders like Opera with
      accelerated rendering.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54937
* Sat Sep 08 2012 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to version 2.20.7:
    Continuing the flurry of releases, this week saw the release of
    xorg-1.13 bringing with it the first steps towards hotpluggable gpu
    support and the ability to offload DRI rendering onto other GPUs. In
    light of that advance, this release includes the support code by Dave
    Airlie to integrate PRIME into xf86-video-intel and make those new
    features available.
  - Aside from landing PRIME, a few other bugs were fixed since 2.20.6:
    + Fix framebuffer leak on server regeneration
    + Fix texture cache flushing on IvyBridge and Kwin with plastique
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54488
    + Redirect large solid fills on SandyBridge+. By large I mean greater
      than 8192 or 16384 pixels on SandyBridge and IvyBridge respectively.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54134
    + Fix up backlight option handling in the manpage and uxa.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54397
    + Unbreak ZaphodHeads.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52438
* Mon Sep 03 2012 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to version 2.20.6:
    A serious bug that caused a crash on SandyBridge and IvyBridge when
    mixing CPU and GPU operations on the same buffer, and an annoyance from
    bad scheduling of windowed swapbuffer updates causing low framerates and
    jitter. Plus the usual smattering of assertion fixes and a long standing
    issue with incoherent page access to a streaming buffer.
  - Bugs fixed since 2.20.5:
    + Low frame rates in Blobby Valley when "fullscreen"
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54274
    + Incoherent concurrent access with the CPU and GPU
    + Add Option "Backlight" to override automatic selection of the
      backlight interface.
    + Avoid overwriting the composite operation info when testing if we
      can transfer the operation to the BLT.
* Mon Sep 03 2012 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to version 2.20.5:
    Another silly bug found, another small bugfix release. The goal was for
    the driver to bind to all Intel devices supported by the kernel.
    Unfortunately we were too successful and started claiming Pouslbo,
    Medfield and Cedarview devices which are still encumbered by propietary
    IP and not supported by this driver.
  - Bugs fixed since 2.20.4:
    + Only bind to Intel devices using the i915 kernel module
    + Regression in the bitmap-to-region code, e.g. icewm window buttons
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53699
* Sat Aug 18 2012 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to version 2.20.4:
    Continuing the small bugfix releases, the only real feature is initial
    enabling for Haswell for the purpose of rendering verification and
    validation - by no means is it complete!
  - Bugs fixed since 2.20.3:
    + Some potential errors along failure paths found by a static analyser
      with the help of Zdenek Kablac.
    + Eliminate zero-sized rectangles from PolyFillRectangles as the code
      assumes that they did not exist and so caused corruption.
    + Remove the UXA warning for failing to tile the front buffer if it is
      disallowed by hardware, and so expected.
    + Fix the validation of the XV pipe parameter.
    + Fix 8x8 tiled pattern fills
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53353
    + Fix compile failure when using --with-builderstring
    + Restore w/a flush for gen4 fill/copy/video, fortunately rare
      operations as at least for fill/copy we prefer to use the BLT.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53119
    + Restore preferred use of the RENDER ring for SNB+ DRI copies.
* Sat Aug 04 2012 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to version 2.20.3:
    Just a minor bugfix for gen4 chipsets (965gm, gm45 and friends) that
    crept into 2.20.2. As an added bonus, the pessimistic workaround for a
    GPU hang on gen4 has been relaxed and the shaders have been overhauled
    which should pave the way to eliminating the last of the uncommon CPU
    operations, along with immediately realising a small performance
    improvement.
  - Bugs fixed since 2.20.2:
    + Update DPMS bookkeeping after modeset
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52142
    + Avoid overlapping gpu/cpu damage after ignoring cpu damage in the
      consideration of placement for the operation.
    + Enable acceleration by default on 830gm/845g. The GMCH on this pair
      of chipsets is notoriously incoherent, so the GPU is almost certainly
      going to hang at some point, though unlikely to hang the system and
      should automatically disable acceleration (and thence behave
      identically as if the acceleration was disabled from the start).
      Option "NoAccel" can be used to disable all 2D acceleration and
      Option "DRI" can be used to disable all 3D acceleration.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52624
    + Fix vertex bookkeeping for gen4 that was causing corruption in the
      command stream.
* Fri Jul 27 2012 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to version 2.20.2:
    + FixedIvyBridge GT1 systems (HD2500 graphics) GPU hang
    + Support for the gmux backlight controller on Apple laptops
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52423
    + Fix X -configure not to list this driver as matching any Intel device,
      just the VGA class devices will do!
    + A crash in SNA when repeatedly switching xrandr rotations
    + Corruption in SNA observed in kwin on IvyBridge
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52473
* Mon Jul 23 2012 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to version 2.20.1:
  - Restore DRI for i810
  - Fixed the SNA fallbacks on 64 bit causing screen corruption
  - Bug fixes:
    + A bug affecting gen4 handling of trapezoids was fixed, and CPU
      overhead reduced.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52158
    + A fix for a bug causing corruption of a DRI2 unredirected client
      window that was resized whilst under a compositor.
    + Support for snoopable buffers on non-LLC architectures, coming to
      a future kernel. The aim to accelerate transfers between the CPU
      and the GPU, in particular to dramatically improve readback
      performance, and to further minimise clflushes.
    + Improvement to the composite performance on GT2 SandyBridge and
      IvyBridge devices, in particular the render copy is significantly
      improved.
    + Improved handling for when acceleration is disabled, including
      permitting DRI2 to remain supported even if the X server believes
      the GPU wedged.
    + Shadow support was dropped from UXA as it was neither complete nor
      correct, use SNA instead.
* Sun Jul 15 2012 tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
  - Update to version 2.20.0:
  - A new acceleration method "sna" that aims to be faster and
      consume far less CPU than UXA is now available for selection at runtime.
  - Bug fixes for UXA:
    + Use a white source whilst adding glyphs to the glyph mask
      (This fixes blank glyphs if using a font that mixes ARGB and A glyphs.)
    + Avoid fallbacks for glyph-to-dst in e.g. gnome-terminal
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50508
    + Force unused outputs off when VT switching
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50772
    + Copy the fbcon across to the Screen pixmap at startup.
      (This patch has been kicking around in the distributions for years.)
    + Many missed malloc failures checks and forgotten frees found by a static
      analyzer. Thanks Zdenek Kabelac!
    + Leak of the back buffer when terminating an application after pageflipping
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50670
    + Double check that the pipe is on before emitting a WAIT_ON_EVENT.
      In conjunction with an uptodate kernel, this should eliminate any
      hangs when changing resolutions or adding/removing displays.
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50668
    + Update to new Xorg APIs. Future proofing for the next generation of
      hotplug Xorg display servers.
* Tue Jul 10 2012 badshah400@gmail.com
  - Add U_Fix_uxa_Check_for_DPMS_off.patch to check for DPMS off
    before scheduling a WAIT_ON_EVENT when using uxa; fixes a
    critical regression introduced in a previous commit
    [bnc#768584].
* Mon Jul 02 2012 sndirsch@suse.com
  - U_Avoid-calling-xf86nameCompare-with-a-NULL-string.patch/
    U_Fix-up-braindamage-in-previous-commit.patch
    * fixes Sig11 with missing driver name in xorg.conf (bnc#766059,
      fdo#51640)
* Tue Jun 12 2012 sndirsch@suse.com
  - let require glamor package instead of recommending it, since the
    driver is linked against this library (there is not only a glamor
    Xserver module as I believed first!)
* Fri Jun 01 2012 sndirsch@suse.com
  - updated to latest git version 2.19.0_20120601_8eed569 with a lot
    of fixes for SNA and the configuration possibility to use UXA,
    SNA or GLAMOR 2D acceleration
  - make again UXA the default, but als build SNA and GLAMOR backends
  - recommend instead of require glamor package
* Fri Jun 01 2012 sndirsch@suse.com
  - remove hw supplements, add recommends to vaapi-intel-driver
    (bnc#764395)
* Wed May 30 2012 sndirsch@suse.com
  - apparently building with "--disable-uxa --enable-glamor" is
    different from building with "--enable-glamor". The former
    resulted in an intel driver no longer working at all. The latter
    results in an "glamor"-enabled intel driver. So use the latter
    one. ;-)
* Wed May 30 2012 sndirsch@suse.com
  - enable "glamor" for real
* Sat May 26 2012 sndirsch@suse.com
  - switched to "glamor" 2D acceleration
* Sat May 26 2012 crrodriguez@opensuse.org
  - Update to version 2.19.0, bugfixes and support
    for Ivy bridge server chipset.
* Tue May 22 2012 crrodriguez@opensuse.org
  - Add proper "Supplements" so driver gets pulled automatically
    if the user has suitable hardware.
* Fri Apr 20 2012 vuntz@opensuse.org
  - Use %x11_abi_videodrv_req instead of static ABI Requires.
* Wed Apr 18 2012 vuntz@opensuse.org
  - Split xf86-video-intel from xorg-x11-driver-video.
    Initial version: 2.18.0.
