Intel working on F14 with 2.6.37

 

Just to let anyone know who's using Fedora:

I installed F14 on my Vaio Z11X9E/B.

With the "advanced storage" option during installation, it detected the
RAID array and setup GRUB successfully.

With the release kernel, only the VESA X driver worked.  However, I
asked one of the Fedora kernel maintainers about the drm-intel-next
branch and he built one for me.  I've tested it with the graphics switch
set to Stamina and it boots normally, with X at the full resolution.
Compiz works, in very brief testing. 

The kernel RPMs are here:

He said he'd work on an update to F14 with the DRM fixes.
