As far as I can tell, the datasheet/manual on the G965 (available on the Intel web site) includes the necessary documentation to build and test such a card. The documentation does NOT contain the details of programming the GMA X3000 graphics engine. This is not because the information is secret; they have shared it with the X.org developers. As I understand it, the full documentation may be made publicly available at some future date, as the current issue is merely cleaning it up to meet Intel's public documentation standards. The information provided to the X.org developers is reportedly complete, and the X.org team was not restricted from using the information in any way, including publishing the source code based on it. In a perfect world, the documentation would be publicly available for download, but even without that, Intel currently has the best open-source story of any PC graphics engine company.
