I have a laptop with an intel VGA controller, and I'd like to try the
new kernel modesetting from the 2.6.29 kernel. What xorg intel driver
version, xorg version, etc do I need to try this out? Also, will it
be possible to use DRI and Xinerama in this configuration, or is that
impossible for some other reason?
My Intel chip, from lspci -v:
