I have recently upgraded to hardware that contains a graphic controller described in lspci as:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller (rev 09) I have only the following x11 video driver packages installed: xf86-video-intel-2.7.1nb6 (Tried upgrading this to latest in pkgsrc, though it seems it is not yet stable in pkgsrc) xf86-video-vesa-2.3.0nb1 >From X11 log I find that it is not picking up intel driver and instead is using the vesa driver. Following is the relevant portion of the log: 167 (II) LoadModule: "intel" 168 (II) Loading /usr/pkg/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//intel_drv.so 169 (II) Module intel: vendor="X.Org Foundation" 170 compiled for 1.6.5, module version = 2.7.1 171 Module class: X.Org Video Driver 172 ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 5.0 173 (II) LoadModule: "i810" 174 (WW) Warning, couldn't open module i810 175 (II) UnloadModule: "i810" 176 (EE) Failed to load module "i810" (module does not exist, 0) The vesa driver works, but its response is quite sluggish. I suppose this is not the best driver for this hardware. For above hardware is "intel" the right driver and are the impending updates in this driver necessary for above hardware? Mayuresh
