Hi again. I've found something, it looks like Intel had outsourced the video graphics part of this family of processors to Imagination Technologies, using their PowerVR technology.
Besides this, there are recent posts in a few forums that talks about an open source driver, on the way. In Intel's website, I could only find a 32-bit driver, and the hint that it was extracted from an older SDK. Meanwhile: http://community.imgtec.com/developers/powervr/graphics-sdk/ I guess that inside the SDK package there might be its driver also, as suggested by Intel, going to try it right now.
