Bug#860308: xserver-xorg-video-intel: why is this discouraged and what do you encourage instead?

2017-04-14 Thread Russell Coker
Package: xserver-xorg-video-intel
Version: 2:2.99.917+git20161206-1
Severity: normal

I am running a i7-2600 which according to Intel was released in 2011 and meets
the "your hw is new enough (ca. 2007 and newer)" criteria for discouraging
the use of this package according to the long description.

Why is it discouraged?  Is anything else encouraged in it's place?

Does libdrm-intel1 cover everything that is needed?

My initial problem is that when using the xserver-xorg-video-fbdev driver
(which happens because xorg decides not to use the Intel driver) I get
1920*1080 resolution on my 2560*1440 HDMI monitor.
