does xf86-video-intel-git work for you?

I have a Lenovo R61 laptop with intel chipset, and i used to use xf86-video-intel-git from aur :

http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=18678

since last week it needed packages from new xorg. I installed new xorg from testing, build it and when i installed i could not use x. When i roll back to 2.9 from testing everything is fine.

Does the git driver work for you or is it broken for some chipsets(can't really remember of mine right now)?

edit: my chipset is GM965/GL960.

It sounds to me like either one of two things happened to you mechmg93. Either some incompatibility crept in with the new X server or your configuration became obsolete. Either way I think that this discussion is better with others that have [testing] enabled. Moving.
