Release 2.14.0 (2011-01-07)
===========================
We are pleased to announce this major release of the xf86-video-intel
driver, on schedule at 3 months since 2.13.0. With the many bug fixes
in this release, we encourage everyone to upgrade to 2.14.
The most notable feature of this release is the inclusion of acceleration
support, both RENDER and XVIDEO, for Sandy Bridge; note that this requires
a 2.6.37 kernel. In improving the acceleration code paths to support Sandy
Bridge, we were also able to improve the performance of the general i965+
RENDER acceleration. For example on i3, glyph (aa10 and rgb10) performance
is about 3x faster, as is performing small copies between windows, with the
improvement becoming negligible once you hit around 100 pixels square.
