I've been sitting on various stages of this update for far too long, about time i sent it out.
This updates the rendering code in the in-tree intel driver to much more recent versions of the upstream intel driver, while retaining user modesetting code (backporting work by me as well as a few openbsd specific changes). This fixes many bugs and provides a large speed improvement (especially text rendering) on 965 and above chipsets. A few bugfixes from kettenis@ are also present fixing some nagging issues. This is a prerequisite for support for sandybridge chipsets so it would be good to get it into the tree soon. Testing would be much appreciated. Instructions follow: Download the tarball at http://xenocara.org/src/intel_update.tgz move /usr/xenocara/driver/xf86-video-intel out of the way and untar the tgz from xenocara/drivers cd xf86-video-intel make -f Makefile.bsd-wrapper obj make -f Makefile.bsd-wrapper build Please let me know if you find any issues, otherwise reports of which hardware this was testing on to me privately please.
