I don't know about you, but driver compiled with --enable-sna works without any problems on my 865G chipsets. I am currently using SandyBrigde graphics on i5 processor and I can't really tell the difference with --enable-sna or without it. However, driver still uses UXA (maybe I did forgot to enable sna or whatever when I recompiled intel driver few days ago :D) -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
