Description
There have been seven commits to the master repository since the last tarball was cut, and one of them gives DRI3 support for gen2/gen3 Intel HD Graphics users
See https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-intel/-/commits/master
I can do this (and tag the synaptics driver), but I would need to start a build on my laptop. I'll leave it unclaimed though in case someone else can get to it first

After talking to Bruce about this a bit, I'll also add intel-media-driver to Xorg Drivers, for VAAPI acceleration on Broadwell+.

I've updated the Xorg driver at d6c15b08614de2c1cc7524fc3b8efa3023ad4d9c , and everything seems to be good.
I'm going to continue building some things to test intel-media-driver and will add that when it's complete.

It's so nice to have Epiphany working well. :)
I've got about 472 packages installed on my laptop now, and I installed the intel-media-driver when I was running the tests for gst-plugins-bad. Everything seems to be working very well here and the video playback in Epiphany is much smoother than it was on previous installations. Checking the logs confirms that iHD_drv_video.so was loaded, and a check of 'lsof' does too
Committing after I finish eating dinner.
