Anyway, I would appreciate a version of the intel driver being in the Kconfig text, otherwise it looks like: don't use this on machines with installation from stone age. If one has latest stable release of a distro, he doesn't even think he doesn't have "new enough userspace". For reference, the text is: Choose this option if you want kernel modesetting enabled by default, and you have a new enough userspace to support this. Running old userspaces with this enabled will cause pain.
