Wish for upgrade intel-driver to v2.9.1
Dear debian-x listmember,
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-intel/ offers a update for
the 2.9 branch of the xserver video driver for intel graphics.
Trying sidux I had some problems with restarting the xserver and in 2.9.1
these seems to be fixed:

May be it is possible to upgrade the debian repos from 2.9.0 to 2.9.1?
Thanks a lot for your work.
Kindest regards,
