This is a checkpoint release. vesa 3.0 will remove the last of the
manual I/O port bashing, and thus the assumption that VBE-conformant
devices are VGA-like devices. I don't expect that to cause any
problems, but releases are cheap, so at least people can easily bisect
between 2.3 and 3.0.

Release notes for xf86-video-intel 2.10.0
=========================================
New requirements of 2.10 compared to 2.9
----------------------------------------
* Linux kernel with kernel-modesetting (KMS)
All user-modesetting code has now been removed from the driver.
We highly recommend kernel version 2.6.32 or later.
* Libdrm >= 2.4.16
New features in 2.10 compared to 2.9
------------------------------------
* New driver debugging options available in xorg.conf
(DebugFlushBatches, DebugFlushCaches, DebugWait). See "man intel"
for more details.
* Video overlay support with KMS. This currently requires Linux
2.6.33, but a backport to 2.6.32 is available here:
http://gitorious.org/daniel-s-linux-stuff/linux-kernel/commits/intel-kms-overlay-for-2.6.32
Notable fixes in 2.10 compared to 2.9
-----------------------------------
* Fix crash when XRenderComposite is called with a -1 value for
width/height, (crash at login when using compiz).
http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24724
* Fix to support larger extended desktops, (such as a 2560x1600 plus a
1920x1200 monitor).
* Fix glyph corruption due to insufficient cache flushing:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24315
Several other correctness and performance fixes are also included.
Note: The driver code of the 2.10.0 release is identical to that of
the 2.9.99.901 release candidate. The only changes in 2.10.0 compared
to 2.9.99.902 are a minor change to the configure script, and some
small updates to the documentation.
