Hi, I installed hipster 20151003 today from DVD on H81 cupset motherboard with Intel G1820 cpu with integrated graphics. I see picture is only at 1024x768 for now and was planning to us VirtualBox on it for running Guest OS(windows) inside, using external USB devices.

My maincencern is graphivcs on that intel and I suppose that should be improoved with Xorg updates, but I witnessed I lost ability to turn off screen with DPMS with xscreensaver and losta bility to control LCD screen brightness , just shortly BEFORE hipster snapshot ISO release...

As you know Hipster can not get older packages back (that used to work better), because of naming scheme that has major package name first and then OI release second and that breaks ability to manipulate packages freely.

So if problem with OI hipster graphics I can't solve during this day, I won't be able to use it on that machine because machine would bein production and out of hands.

I protest inability to install older packages in hipster that works and naming scheme that effectuively makes hipster unusable for making stable distro. I protest making hipster snapshot releases that include freshly introduced regressions and new bugs. Always being in constant flux and adding changes that add more bugs is not leading to having something usefull and supportable.
