The description of that package says:
The use of this driver is discouraged if your hw is new enough (ca.
2007 and newer). You can try uninstalling this driver and let the
server use it's builtin modesetting driver instead.
So you dont need it.

Title:
intel driver is not installed
Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
After
sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel
En changing the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file to
Section "Device"
Identifier "Card0"
Driver "intel"
Option "AccelMethod" "sna"
EndSection
The intel driver is still not installed: lshw -c video gives
configuration: latency=0
, so there's no driver at all. Also, lspci -kvnn has no kernel driver
in use on the VGA compatible controller. The kernel module is i915, as
to be expected.
