<ul>
+<li>New DRI memory manager system. Currently used by the i915tex driver.
+Other DRI drivers will be updated to use the new memory manager in coming
+months.
+<br>
+To use the new driver you'll need the most recent DRM library and drivers
+(version 2.2 or later) and a recent xf86-video-intel driver module from X.org.

+New features resulting from this work include:
+<ul>
+<li>EXT_framebuffer_objects, render to texture
+<li>ARB_pixel_buffer_objects
+<li>Accelerated CopyTexSubimage, DrawPixels, ReadPixels, CopyPixels
+<li>Accelerated texture uploads from pixel buffer objects
+<li>Potentially texturing directly from the pixel buffer object (zero
+copy texturing).
+</ul>
+<li>New Intel i965 DRI driver
<li>New <code>minstall</code> script to replace normal install program
<li>Faster fragment program execution in software
