10 Yeah, had that too and it's a bit confusing that the i810 driver (which
11 is a link to intel, AFAIK) loads but does not detect anything.

13 Since the driver was renamed from i810 to intel in upstream, I vote for
14 Gentoo to rename the package as well, from xf86-video-i810 to
15 xf86-video-intel.
