Hi ubuntu-xers, One of our popular feature requests is support for accelerated video with KMS on i8xx [1]. This is especially important now that UMS support is dropped. This will supported by default with the 2.6.33 kernel and -intel driver 2.10.0, but wasn't fully implemented when 2.6.32 reached stable. Since many distros are using 2.6.32, Daniel Vetter (who implemented the overlay support) has made a backport [2] available for distros to use [3]. He says Debian and Gentoo plans to use this. Any chance of pulling it into Lucid?
