OK I installed every intel graphics package I could find. But Nvidia is still
what Xorg thinks is attached to:
PCI:*(0:0:2:0) 8086:0166:17aa:5018 rev 9, Mem @ 0xf0000000/4194304, 
0xe0000000/268435456, I/O @ 0x00005000/64

Intel appears to be currently unsupported. Well my version of Ivy Bridge 
anyway.
Time to buy an Nvidia card. I guess. :-(
