Intel X.Org Driver package, an open source 2D graphics driver for the X Window System as implemented by X.org, has reached version 2.99.907 (3.0 Pre-Release 7).

Chris Wilson has released yet another version of xf86-video-intel drivers, which features some interesting changes, as usual.

According to the developers, acceleration support for Intel's next generation of Integrated processor graphics, codenamed Broadwell, has landed.

Also, a potential X server infinite recursion (crash) from a gen2 bug fix regression in 2.99.906 has been fixed, VSync has been disabled on Baytrail, and the gen4 render corruption has been hidden by crippling the GPU.

A complete list of changes and improvements can be found in the source archive. Download Intel X.Org Driver 2.99.907 (3.0 Pre-Release 7) right now from Softpedia.

Remember that this is a development version and it should NOT be installed on production machines. It is intended for testing purposes only.
