   One thing I agree on: pay no mind to drm_pciids.h; it is an artifact of 
old code and will be gone soon.

   agpgart doesn't care about the drm/i915 pci id's either.

   The one that is relevant is the id's in the package manifest:

    https://hg.openindiana.org/upstream/oracle/x-cons/x-s12-clone/file/5dc3c751c9c5/pkg/manifests/driver-graphics-drm.p5m

And I'm guessing that the pciid for the X230 is in this list, as HD 4000 
should work.

   Two comments immediately come to mind:

    Don't be changing copyrights
    Be mindful of attribution of imported source.
