Hi,
 
We’d like to announce Intel 2011Q4 graphics package, focused on performance and stability improvements in the Intel Linux Graphics stack.
 
Please check http://intellinuxgraphics.org/2011Q4.html for the recommended stack, list of new features and known issues.

I'd also like to thank all the developers, community, our users and testers for helping us to improve the drivers. Thanks a lot for all your work, help and support!

And as usual, if you find any new issues, please let as know by filing bugs following the http://intellinuxgraphics.org/how_to_report_bug.html guidelines.

Thanks,
