Recompile the kernel if necessary: Device Drivers ---> Graphics support ---> <*> Direct Rendering Manager (XFree86 ... support) ---> [CONFIG_DRM] <*> Intel 8xx/9xx/G3x/G4x/HD Graphics [CONFIG_DRM_I915] xorg-intel-driver Install Xorg Intel Driver by running the following commands: ./autogen.sh $XORG_CONFIG \ --enable-kms-only \ --enable-uxa \ --mandir=/usr/share/man && make This package does not come with a test suite. Now, as the root user: make install && mv -v /usr/share/man/man4/intel-virtual-output.4 \ /usr/share/man/man1/intel-virtual-output.1 && sed -i '/\.TH/s/4/1/' /usr/share/man/man1/intel-virtual-output.1 The SandyBridge New Acceleration (SNA) code is intended to replace the old UXA (UMA Acceleration Architecture), but it is a large body of code and may cause problems. However, the version of the code in the version control system listed above has been tested successfully with both SNA and UXA capabilities. To work around this problem, as well as enabling support for UXA, it is necessary to force UXA to be used by creating a configuration file. If this problem applies to you, create the following file as the root user and modify it as needed: cat >> /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf << "EOF" Section "Device" Identifier "Intel Graphics" Driver "intel" #Option "DRI" "2" # DRI3 is default #Option "AccelMethod" "sna" # default #Option "AccelMethod" "uxa" # fallback EndSection EOF --enable-kms-only: This switch omits the UMS (User Mode Setting) code. --enable-uxa: This switch allows the old UXA code to be compiled in addition to the default SNA.
