I think that this is the relevant part of my /var/log/Xorg.0.log file:
Module intel: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
compiled for 7.2.0, module version = 14.94.94
Module class: X.Org Video Driver
ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 1.1
Using this driver has also resolved (at least to a large degree) the
issues I was having with connecting an external screen to the laptop too.
