Hi Martin,<br>
thanks for the update!<br>
The manual page mentions that support concerns:<br>
<br>
"[...] the Intel i845, i865, i915, i945, i965 and G33 series integrated graphics controllers."<br>
<br>
while ThinkWiki mentions that, for Linux, the i915 driver may be used with Intel<br>
HD Graphics.<br>
Do you know if it is also the case ?<br>

The man page, even in Solaris, is out of date. The driver supports some generations of Intel HD graphics, but there's been 5 or 6 completely different<br>
generations so far, so "Intel HD graphics" is too vague - it's like claiming to<br>
support all Intel CPU's & ISA extensions without knowing which CPU models.<br>
