Bug#860308: xserver-xorg-video-intel: why is this discouraged and what do you encourage instead?
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. -- Package-specific info: X server symlink status: lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 13 Sep 5 2011 /etc/X11/X -> /usr/bin/Xorg -rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 274 Mar 4 01:41 /usr/bin/Xorg VGA-compatible devices on PCI bus: -- 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:0102] (rev 09) /etc/X11/xorg.conf does not exist. /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d does not exist.
