Description sergio.callegari 2012-12-21 17:08:06 UTC 
Looks like latest changes to the driver code make it impossible to deploy with non bleeding-edge xorg servers (e.g. that on ubuntu quantal)

On quantal, trying to start X with the latest intel driver refuses to load the driver and falls back to the framebuffer and llvmpipe.

In the log I get

Failed to load /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/intel_drv.so:
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/intel_drv.so: undefined symbol:
XvMCScreenInitProc 

Which makes me think that this may have something to do with commit

Best seasonal wishes!
