It is? The last commit I see on FdO's gitweb is 10 days ago. Perhaps I'm
not looking in the right place? I was looking at the modesetting-keithp
branch.
http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=xorg/driver/xf86-video-intel.git;a=shortlog;h=modesetting-keithp
I see two other branches that look relevant, the most recent of which
is 'modesetting'. I'll give that one a try instead.

Cool. Thanks for the pointer. I'll give it a try against Xorg 1.1.1 first
(since I'd rather not replace more software than I need to). If it doesn't
work, would you be interested in bug reports? And if so, what information
(aside from the usual X log, description, etc.) would you like me to
include?
