Bug#533450: New Poulsbo Driver Soon?



After talking to the Intel graphics guys, it's pretty clear to me the current
driver is a dead-end.  They essentially said it would be impossible to
integrate into any modern X/DRI system.

However, it looks as if a new one is on the way:

If you click through the links you'll find stories about not just the
binary 3D driver but a new open-source 2D one as well.

I think  it would be more productive to work on packaging these
as the current package is preventing me from upgrading X.  That
said, I very much appreciate having a fairly functional netbook
thanks to all of you!
