Hrm. It's not that simple. The devices supported by the new driver
and not the old one are 965GM, 965GME, G33, Q35, Q33 and IGD_GM (pci ids
2A02, 2A12, 29C2, 29B2, 29D2 and 2A42).
So the i965-based 965G, 965Q and 946GZ were already supported. Kernel
support for those had been backported to the etch kernel IIRC.
The newer ones probably won't work without the etch+1/2 kernel, as they
need the intel-agp kernel driver.
Sorry about the confusion.
Cheers,
Julien
